What is recorded here

Drum Castle, South Drive is a drive in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The official record does not assign it to a period, leaving the age and purpose of the drive uncertain. It may have served the castle for centuries or appeared much later when roads were improved. The uncertainty does not diminish the place, because the missing date preserves the mystery of the route and the castle it once reached.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Drum Castle, South Drive as Drive (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.
