What is recorded here

Todscleuch is a medieval settlement and tower house in the Scottish Borders, recorded in the national heritage register. The stone tower rose above ordinary homes, perhaps guarding a valley route or declaring the power of a local family. Its exact purpose has faded, but the structure still marks the landscape where medieval life clustered around defence and dominance.
