How it worked
The label Designed landscape feature gives the safest clue to purpose or form. It does not by itself prove the exact building method, daily use, age or sequence of changes at this place.
What remains
The official record fixes the place and calls it Designed landscape feature. It does not provide a full list of finds or a current condition report, so visible and buried remains are not guessed.
Why it mattered
Indicated — Corrofin matters as a recorded designed landscape feature tied to an exact landscape. The account keeps what is known useful while leaving names, dates and claims unsupported by the source visibly open.
