What is recorded here
Sorn Castle, Stables stands in East Ayrshire, Scotland, though no date or visible function has survived to explain when the horses first breathed inside. The absence is not a flaw; it is an invitation to imagine the clatter of hooves on stone, the smell of wet straw, and the hands that fed them before the castle itself fell silent. What is missing can still be felt when a person stands beside the stones and listens for the life that disappeared.
