What is recorded here

Dundas Castle Estate is a castle, fort or tower in City of Edinburgh, Scotland. Perhaps its walls still hold the shape of hands that built them, though no human name survives to claim the work. Maybe the estate served as a boundary marker between competing households, its stones proving a line drawn in blood and bargain. Imagine a keeper walking the rampart at dusk, reading the city lights below as a language of warnings and invitations.
