What is recorded here
Drum Castle Policies and West Wood Plantations mark a field boundary near Aberdeenshire, where local land still carries the shape of older ownership. The exact period remains unassigned, yet the boundary suggests people once drew a clear line through wood and pasture. That line may have separated castle grounds from common fields, forcing neighbours to recognise where one claim ended and another began.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Drum Castle Policies, West Wood Plantations as Field Boundary (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.
