What is recorded here

Castle Street in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, has worn many functions since 1819, but a health centre inside that old terraced house suggests continuity rather than replacement. The building may have begun as domestic rooms for neighbours, then adapted to care for bodies when the area needed it. That change is not loss; it is the street learning what its people require at each moment.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Dumfries, 27 Castle Street as Health Centre (21st Century) - (21st Century), Terraced House (19th Century) (1819). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
