What is recorded here

Newcastleton, 10 South Hermitage Street is a cottage in the Scottish Borders, recorded without a date but marked on the official map to the nearest metre. It may have housed a hermit, a trader, or a family who forgot to leave behind a name. The absence of a date does not mean absence of life. It means the walls stopped repeating what they learned, and the street kept moving around them.
