What is recorded here

Fortrose stands at 8 Castle Street in St Katherine's, a private house held back from easy judgment because its exact age and purpose remain unrecorded. It may have served as a trading home, a clerical residence, or a refuge for people moving through the Highland town. The missing date does not diminish the place; it preserves the uncertainty that makes the building worth remembering.
