What is recorded here

Green Castle stands in East Lothian as both a prehistoric and medieval fort, a rare double life recorded without invention. The land may have worn human marks since before written memory, then been shaped again by medieval hands. That much is clear. What is missing is the voice of the people who first climbed it, defended it, or forgot it.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Green Castle as Fort (prehistoric), Fort (medieval). 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.

Green Castle is a prehistoric and medieval fortification in Scotland, though specific builders and dates remain unidentified. Its dual-period significance highlights its long-standing strategic or defensive role in the region.
