What is recorded here

Drum Castle Policies, West Bank (home Farm) marks a field boundary beside Aberdeenshire, where stone or hedge once drew the line between castle land and neighbouring farms. The exact period remains unassigned, yet the name suggests centuries of local life, perhaps fencing livestock or defining taxable ground. A person may have walked that bank at dawn, reading weather in the grass and knowing every inch by heart. The policies still belong to memory even when modern maps offer no date.
