What is recorded here
Castlethorn is a possible settlement in West Lothian, Scotland, preserved only as an unassigned point in the national record. It may have been a small cluster of homes, a trading spot or a forgotten neighbour of Torphichen. The absence of a date or visible building does not erase the people who may have lived there; it simply invites imagination to fill the gap.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castlethorn as Settlement (period Unassigned)(possible). 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.
