Overview
Witches Syke Plantation is recorded as Finger Post (20th Century) in Scotland East Lothian. The saved record does not give a safe building date. The saved evidence fixes the building and its protected record while keeping unknown builders, people and changes open.
Why it was built
The record classifies Witches Syke Plantation as Finger Post (20th Century). It does not safely state the first owner's purpose beyond that use, so this first account does not borrow a story from a namesake.
People and work
No architect, builder, owner, worker or resident is named in the saved wording. Those people remain unknown until the linked official record or another source identifies them.
How it changed
The saved wording does not establish particular rebuilding, extensions, damage or changes of use. No visible feature is assigned a date without supporting evidence.
What survives
The public record still identifies the place as Finger Post (20th Century). Its saved point marks the building or centre of its recorded area, but the stock wording does not provide a room-by-room condition report.
Why it mattered
Its official record preserves Witches Syke Plantation as part of the area's built history. The exact architectural or community importance remains with the linked evidence rather than an invented claim.
