What is recorded here

Castlethorn is a possible prehistoric standing stone in West Lothian, preserved only as a vague point on the national record rather than a documented monument. That uncertainty belongs to the place, because a stone may have stood there, fallen, been buried or never been seen at all. The land keeps its own evidence, waiting for someone careful enough to notice what the soil has hidden.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castlethorn as Standing Stone(s) (prehistoric)(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.
