What is recorded here
Cramond Road South holds a forgotten pump, path and drain beside Lauriston Castle, where water still moves through stone and soil. The exact age has not been recorded, but the shapes suggest people once relied on that hidden flow. A castle shadow stretches across the drive, implying the pump served more than passing carts.
