I am reading The Master of Ballantrae by Robert Lewis Stevenson and I find he uses some archaic words and meanings I cannot find even in the big Oxford Dictionary. For example, on several occasions, he writes that Mr. Henry was as usual in the lower end of the hall; or, that Mr. Henry went to play with his son in the policies (which from the context I have guessed must signify some grounds/place). What would those be?
