What is recorded here
Edrington Castle Farm stands in the Scottish Borders as a farmhouse and farmstead, its boundaries marked only by a point accurate to one metre. The name hints at a lost castle, yet no tower or date remains visible to confirm the claim. A family may have worked that land for generations, measuring life in barley, weather and the patience of soil. The castle part sounds like pride or memory rather than fact, but the farm part is plain: hands, vessels, patience and repeated labour.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Edrington Castle Farm as Farmhouse (period Unassigned), Farmstead (period Unassigned). 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.
