What is recorded here
Drum Castle Policies, Cowie Hill marks a field boundary in Aberdeenshire, though no human date or named event is recorded. The line may have separated grass from garden, tenant from lord, or simply defined where one household stopped and another began. Without a date or owner, the boundary becomes a placeholder for ordinary ownership, waiting for a local family to remember which side belonged to whom.
