Brucefield, a level tract at the base of Baria Hill in Bourtie parish, Aberdeenshire. It is now under the plough; but it formerly comprised a number of small elliptical entrenchments; and it is thought, by some archæologists, to have been the scene of the conflict called variously, by historians, the battle of Inverurie and the battle of Old Meldrum. See Bourtie.
