What is recorded here

Castle Mains Farm stands in Sanquhar, Dumfries and Galloway, its exact position known to the nearest metre though no date or owner emerges from the silence. It may have fed travellers, sheltered workers, or simply waited for hands strong enough to keep its roofs clear of rain. The land does not need a legend to be valuable, but it accepts one gladly when somebody finally walks its fields and remembers the name.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Sanquhar, Castle Mains Farm as Farmhouse (period Unassigned), Farmstead (period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. 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.
