What is recorded here

Whitcastle Hill marks post Medieval enclosures and field boundaries in the Scottish Borders, where ordinary land management left behind a visible scar on the hillside. The exact position remains known to the nearest ten metres, yet permission to walk the ground is not automatic. That distinction matters because clarity about the place does not equal clearance to enter it.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Whitcastle Hill as Enclosure(s) (post Medieval), Field Boundary(s) (post Medieval). 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.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
