What is recorded here

West Barcloy stands as a possible medieval tower house in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. Its exact boundary remains unclear because the known point sits within a kilometre of the true mark. That distance is large enough for the building to hide behind brush, sink into marsh or vanish into memory. A tower may have watched the land, but the earth has taken back its edge.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records West Barcloy as Tower House (medieval)(possible). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1km. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
