Dykeraw

Tower House (medieval)(possible)

What is recorded here

Dykeraw is a possible medieval tower house hidden in the Scottish Borders, remembered more as a ghost than a building. It may have stood as a small defensive home for a local family, watching the land and waiting out storms. The uncertainty itself belongs to the place, suggesting a structure so old or broken that even its identity has faded.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Dykeraw 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.

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