| BROKEN GRIP | Broken Grip | Mr Allardes, Tillyminnate Mr Robert Ferrier, Kirkney Mr George Gatherer, Rhynie |
034 | This name applies to a steep bank at a bend on the Kirkney Water. When the water is flooded it usually carries away part of it, hence the name. |
| CHAPEL (Remains of) | Chapel (Remains of) | Mr Allardes, Tillyminnate Mr Robert Ferrier, Kirkney Mr George Gatherer, Rhynie |
034 | All that remains of this Chapel is an angle of the foundation quite visible about half a foot above the ground. No account of the date of its erection is to be found, nor of the time when it ceased to be used as a place of Worship. Therefore it is very likely that it was either destroyed at the Reformation or allowed to fall to decay. It must have been a Very primitive building as no appearance of Mortar is near the foundation. |

Ordnance Survey - Aberdeen county
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Aberdeen, which is in the north east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
