Tower House (medieval)(possible)

What is recorded here

Upper Corsock is a possible medieval tower house in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. Its exact position is known within ten metres, yet its history remains unclear. The land may have hidden a small fortress, a family home or a military post. Someone may have watched the surrounding country from its walls, waited for danger or simply lived beside the sky.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Upper Corsock as Tower House (medieval)(possible). 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.
