What is recorded here

Fraser Policies is a post-medieval structure in Aberdeenshire that still stands inside the old estate boundary. It is the kind of place where stone and policy tangled together, marking land that could be owned, defended or disputed. The name suggests a household that shaped its surroundings rather than a building that appeared ready made.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castle Fraser Policies as Structure (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.
Built by the Fraser family in the 17th century, Castle Fraser Policies are remembered as part of a significant historic estate associated with one of Scotland's prominent noble families.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
