What is recorded here
Castle Loch, Mochrum is a crannog hidden in Dumfries and Galloway, waiting beneath water and memory. It may have been a small island home, a fishing platform, or a forgotten anchor for lives that never wrote themselves down. The loch keeps its secrets patient, giving up only shadow, reed, and the chance of a shape moving when no one walks beside it.
