Edinburgh Castle, Boundary Stone Number 11

Boundary Stone (19th Century)

What is recorded here

Edinburgh Castle, Boundary Stone Number 11 is a 19th-century boundary stone set into the castle estate. It marks the edge of owned land rather than the edge of a room, a street or a county. The stone is small, but the line it holds is not. A person walking past it may never know the castle has drawn a visible border around itself.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Edinburgh Castle, Boundary Stone Number 11 as Boundary Stone (19th Century). 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.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
