What is recorded here
Castle Fraser Policies stands in Aberdeenshire as a Post Medieval lodge, its timber bones hidden beneath grass and time. The structure belongs to the broad sweep between 1561 and 1899, when human hands shaped wood and stone across Scotland. It may have served as a hunting seat, a keeper's shelter, or a private retreat for those who walked the estate paths. The policies themselves suggest enclosure, possession, and the quiet confidence of people who marked their territory against the wilder land.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castle Fraser Policies as Lodge (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.
