What is recorded here
Hill of Blairbowie in Aberdeenshire still wears the shapes of a possible medieval castle, an unassigned kiln and a well. Stone and soil may have served a lord, fired clay for roof or pipe, and given water to whoever lived nearby. The hill keeps those uses tangled together, waiting for a person brave enough to walk its quiet slope and ask what it remembers.
