What is recorded here

Newcastleton occupies number 43 South Hermitage Street, a small cottage anchor in the Scottish Borders. It remains unassigned in time, denying the usual comfort of a date. That vacuum invites imagination, perhaps a bedroom for a keeper or a workshop for a weaver. The house still stands beside Hermitage Street, waiting for a person brave enough to remember it.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Newcastleton, 43 South Hermitage 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.
