What is recorded here
Castlelaw is a twentieth-century boundary stone set in Midlothian, marking the edge of the Castlelaw and Dreghorn Training Area. It stands among older fort remains and firing ranges, where military use and ancient settlement still share the same ground. The small stone does more than separate land; it reminds people that even a closed training field belongs to a longer human story.
