What is recorded here
Range Castle, Hillfort stands in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, a buried anchor rather than a proud ridge. It may have watched weather, herds or passing people, but no exact date or named event survives to tighten the story. The castle in the name hints at a later building or local memory layered onto an older hillfort shape. Much of its life may have been ordinary: fire, rain, footsteps and forgetfulness.
Range Castle, Hillfort is shown as a archaeological place on the public map of Dumfries and Galloway. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
