Castle

What is recorded here

Kilmartin Castle stands in Argyll and Bute, Scotland, a castle marked on the public map but stripped here of every human event, date and named room. Its absence is the truth being told: a place can exist on a map while withholding its story. Whatever life moved through it, that much is missing, and the castle keeps the border between memory and invention exactly where it belongs.
Kilmartin Castle is shown as a castle on the public map of Argyll and Bute. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Kilmartin Castle was built by the Clan Campbell in the 16th century and later held by the Drummond family. It is important as a historical site reflecting the power struggles and territorial expansions of Scottish clans during the late medieval period.
