What is recorded here
Castle Fraser Policies holds cisterns dating from 1561 to 1899, when water had to be caught, kept clean and carried into the castle before pipes turned supply into a habit. Those stones may have served kitchens, gardens or chambers now absent, but they still mark the moment human arrogance began expecting the earth to provide on command.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castle Fraser Policies as Field Boundary (period Unassigned). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 1m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
