'grenewich'

Tower House (medieval)

What is recorded here

Grenewich rises in Dumfries and Galloway as a medieval tower house, its stones marked by age rather than modern convenience. The exact location remains uncertain within a hundred metres, inviting wonder about which field or valley holds the true base. Such ambiguity suits a medieval fortress, built to dominate and resist clarification.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records 'grenewich' as Tower House (medieval). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 100m. 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.
