What is recorded here
Little Bass is a castle in Aberdeenshire, not a whispered fantasy or abandoned dream. It belongs to the place, appears on its map and resists being erased. The real chamber is being clear about what it is.
The Bass and Little Bass is shown as a castle on the public map of Aberdeenshire. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
The Bass and Little Bass were built by the Comyn family in the 13th century as a strategic stronghold in the north-east of Scotland. They are remembered for their role in the Wars of Scottish Independence and for the famous siege of 1306, during which Robert the Bruce captured the castle.
