What is recorded here

Newcastleton, 32 South Hermitage Square, stands as a cottage in the Scottish Borders, its exact position known to the nearest metre yet its history unrecorded. The absence of a date does not diminish the place; it invites imagination about the hands that built it and the lives that moved through its rooms. A cottage is never empty, even when forgotten, because every joint and stone still holds the shape of the people who made it theirs.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Newcastleton, 32 South Hermitage Square 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.
