Life on the Drum
Through out the year I have been visiting the Drum estate, documenting a variety of aspects; from the animals that call it home, to the work done on the estate to maintain it. On the estate there is Drum RDA, Drum Riding Centre for the Disabled, which has been providing therapeutic horseback riding for over 50 years. Previously the estate was a royal hunting forest called Drumselch, today pheasants are still raised as game on the estate for hunting. The estate was also home to Mercat Cross for over a hundred years until it's restoration to Edinburgh's Royal Mile. The Drum is reliant on those that work there to maintain it's grounds and livestock. Dennis Fraser, the Drum's game keeper, for example is responsible for ensuring that the natural ecosystem of the estate is looked after and that the game pheasants have a safe environment to grow from chicks, in spite of what any eager foxes have in mind
