What is recorded here
Castle Bervy on Stronsay may have been a medieval building, though no certain fact remains to confirm the claim. The name sounds like a place where people lived, argued, loved and forgot themselves in ordinary days. If a castle stood there, it has surrendered its walls to grass, rain and time. What is left is a hint of shape, a lost address and the possibility that someone once called the site home.
