What is recorded here

Castlemaddy is a field system in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, where stone lines still divide the land into rooms for grass, sheep or memory. The exact age has not been assigned, but the shape suggests people repeated the same judgment across generations: this much ground for people, that much for weather, the rest for the walk between.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castlemaddy as Field System(s) (period Unassigned). 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.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
