What is recorded here
Irvine, 2 Castle Place is a twentieth-century cottage in North Ayrshire, recorded as a small domestic structure rather than a grand monument. Its modesty is the point. Castle Place suggests a broader civic sweep, but this address may have belonged to a worker, keeper, trader or family who needed a door, a kitchen and a bed. The cottage still stands inside that human ordinary, waiting for someone to remember whether it was joyful, stubborn or simply alive.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Irvine, 2 Castle Place as Cottage (20th Century). 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.
