What is recorded here
Castle O'er Estate preserves an Iron Age linear earthwork in Dumfries and Galloway, where a raised line of soil still marks the boundary of forgotten fields. People may have walked past that ridge for centuries, reading ownership or warning in its shape. The estate name suggests later housing and management, yet the old earthwork remains the clearest voice of the place.
