What is recorded here

Cathcart Castle Golf Course in East Renfrewshire, Scotland holds a prehistoric cup and ring marked stone. The castle name suggests a lost fortress, while the golf course suggests a place made for leisure and movement. The stone predates both, carrying marks from a time when people had no written records at all.
