What is recorded here

Castle Findlay is a prehistoric vitrified stone fort in Highland, Scotland, where extreme heat fused rock into glassy surfaces before human memory faded. It still stands as a ruined monument, marked on official maps and protected under historic record. The vitrification suggests fire so intense it melted stone, perhaps from ritual, conflict, or accident, yet no written account survives to confirm which. What remains is a place where heat transformed earth into something permanent, waiting for someone to imagine the hands that built it.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castle Findlay as Fort (prehistoric), Vitrified Stone (prehistoric). 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.
