What is recorded here
Murthly Castle, Walled Garden stands in Perth and Kinross, Scotland, recorded as a walled garden without a clear period. The exact location is known to the nearest metre, yet the wall itself may have guarded vegetables, herbs or secrets for generations. Someone walked those paths, trimmed green edges and watched shadow move across the stones. The castle loomed nearby, perhaps proud, perhaps hungry for attention, while the garden gave life back in quiet measure.
