What is recorded here
Castlehill in Inverness is a residential area where Neolithic burning pits still lie beneath modern streets and tradition claims King Kenneth I granted the land to the Cuthbert family in the 950s. A flint axehead and Roman coin have surfaced there, linking everyday life across millennia. Castlehill House stands nearby, its older part dating probably to the late 18th or early 19th century.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castlehill as Axehead (flint)(period Unassigned), Coin (roman). 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.
