What is recorded here

Myres Castle stands in Fife as a medieval fortress rebuilt around 1530, its ochre walls and garlanded tower rising above fields that still remember water. It served the Macers, sergeants of arms to Falkland Palace, and later became a private residence where Fairlie shooting diaries and wartime loss remain embedded in its rooms. The name Myres points to a boggy place, a truth the grounds still tell through their pond, runoff and late drainage works.
