What is recorded here

Craigcrook Castle stands beside Craigcrook Road in Edinburgh, its outhouses still attached like forgotten limbs. The main structure dominates memory, but the smaller buildings hint at domestic labor, heat, storage and private routines that sustained the household. They are not decorative; they are the muscular part of the castle, the place where life was measured in chores rather than ceremony.
