Dupplin Castle Policies, Brachman Quarry

Quarry (period Unassigned)

What is recorded here

Brachman Quarry cuts through Dupplin Castle Policies in Perth and Kinross, its exact position known within ten metres though no human date or named event remains attached to the scar. The rock may have fallen for road metal, castle repair or private hunger, while men and women watched the earth open like a wound. What was taken is gone, but the hole still holds the shape of that hunger, waiting for someone brave enough to look inside.
