What is recorded here
Ruined farm house at Ormacleit Castle is a castle, fort or tower in Na h-Eileanan Siar, Scotland. Perhaps the farm house still smells of wood smoke and salt though no chimney remains. Maybe a keeper lived beside the castle walls and tended goats on the rocky ground. Imagine the woman dropping a clay cup in the yard and walking away because the castle needed her more.
