What is recorded here
Gardyne Castle, the Cottage stands in Angus, Scotland, yet no human date or builder has emerged to explain its origins. The castle name suggests a lost lordly house, while the cottage label implies a smaller dwelling that outlived the grander structure. Perhaps the castle fell and the cottage remained, keeping the name alive through generations that never wrote their story down.
