What is recorded here

Newcastleton, 5 George Street holds a small cottage in the Scottish Borders, its exact position known within one metre though no human date or event has yet entered the story. The precision suggests a life already measured: a door handled, a room warmed, a name spoken often enough to remember. The absence of a date does not empty the place; it withholds one part of the answer.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Newcastleton, 5 George Street as Cottage (period Unassigned). 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.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
