What is recorded here
Forfar, 1-5 Castle Street is an 18th Century tenement in Angus, Scotland. It stands as a row of houses rather than a single grand hall, suggesting ordinary life clustered along a busy street. People may have lived, worked or traded within those walls while Forfar grew around them. The building remains a visible part of the town because it survived the changes that erased smaller structures.
