What is recorded here
Castle Terrace Car Park is a twentieth-century concrete basin beside the old city, built for wheels rather than memory. It sits under the shadow of Edinburgh’s highest rocks, waiting for vehicles to arrive and leave again. The stones do not judge the temporary life moving above them. They hold the city’s shape steady while people come and go.
