What is recorded here

Easthills stands in South Lanarkshire as a medieval tower house, its point marked within ten metres on the national record. The exact position survives even when the visible structure has faded, suggesting people once built height and defence into that particular land. Whether the tower still rises or lies buried beneath grass and time, the coordinate preserves the shape of human ambition at that spot.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Easthills as Tower House (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.
