What is recorded here

Coldsyde is a possible medieval tower house hidden in the Scottish Borders, remembered only through a point on a national record rather than a visible gate. The name suggests cold shade and stubborn stone, the kind of place where people may have watched weather, waited for news, or simply refused to leave. Whether it stood tall or lay buried under grass, the border still keeps its edge.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Coldsyde as Tower House (medieval)(possible). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 100m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
