What is recorded here
Drum Castle Policies, Target Park marks an earthwork bank and field boundary in Aberdeenshire, though no date or builder is known. The distinction between a castle defence and an ordinary farm edge still blunts because the land has not answered which purpose it served. People may have walked past a warning wall or simply followed a ownership line, yet both possibilities fit the same soil.

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.
