What is recorded here

Castlemilktown stands in Dumfries and Galloway as a farmhouse and farmstead, its exact age still unrecorded. The name hints at a castle that once drank milk or gave it life, though no written fact confirms the claim. A family may have lived there through storms and festivals, their footsteps worn into stone now hidden beneath grass. The town still breathes in the quiet countryside, waiting for someone to remember why it was named.

The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
