What is recorded here
Drum Castle Policies holds a bare stone platform and the ghost of a summerhouse, waiting for someone to remember why they built it. The land belongs to memory now, not mastery. A person may have sat on that edge, watching rain move across grass, knowing the castle would outlive every name spoken inside it.

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.
