038 | At about a mile above Kinharrachy, the Ebrie flows into the Ythan. This stream has its source in the parish of New Deer. In its ordinary volume it is of no great account; but in heavy rains, owing to the unusual declivity of the banks along its course, it swells into an imposing torrent. It has a character of its own, however; the occasional fury of its passage has worn deep holes in its channel, so that from a harmless-looking stream it sometimes proves a dangerous pitfall. Extract from Pratt's history of Buchan, page 243. |
