THE PINNING STONES Culture and Community in Aberdeenshire
THE PINNING STONES Culture and community in Aberdeenshire When traditional rubble stone masonry walls were originally constructed it was common practice to use a variety of small stones, called pinnings, to make the larger stones secure in the wall. This gave rubble walls distinctively varied appearances across the country depend- ing upon what local practices and materials were used.

Place-Names of the Cairngorms National Park
Place-Names of the Cairngorms National Park Place-Names in the Cairngorms This leaflet provides an introduction to the background, meanings and pronunciation of a selection of the place-names in the Cairngorms National Park including some of the settlements, hills, woodlands, rivers and lochs in the Angus Glens, Strathdon, Deeside, Glen Avon, Glen Livet, Badenoch and Strathspey. Place-names give us some insight into the culture, history, environment and wildlife of the Park. They were used to help identify natural and built landscape features and also to commemorate events and people. The names on today’s maps, as well as describing landscape features, remind us of some of the associated local folklore. For example, according to local tradition, the River Avon (Aan): Uisge Athfhinn – Water of the Very Bright One – is said to be named after Athfhinn, the wife of Fionn (the legendary Celtic warrior) who supposedly drowned while trying to cross this river. The name ‘Cairngorms’ was first coined by non-Gaelic speaking visitors around 200 years ago to refer collectively to the range of mountains that lie between Strathspey and Deeside. Some local people still call these mountains by their original Gaelic name – Am Monadh Ruadh or ‘The Russet- coloured Mountain Range’.These mountains form the heart of the Cairngorms National Park – Pàirc Nàiseanta a’ Mhonaidh Ruaidh. Invercauld Bridge over the River Dee Linguistic Heritage Some of the earliest place-names derive from the languages spoken by the Picts, who ruled large areas of Scotland north of the Forth at one time. The principal language spoken amongst the Picts seems to have been a ‘P-Celtic’ one (related to Welsh, Cornish, Breton and Gaulish).

The Management Plan for Muir of Dinnet National Nature Reserve 2014-2024
The Management Plan for Muir of Dinnet National Nature Reserve 2014-2024 For further information on Muir of Dinnet NNR please contact: The Reserve Manager Scottish Natural Heritage Burn O’Vat Visitor Centre Dinnet Aboyne Aberdeenshire AB34 5NB Tel: 01339 881667 Email: [email protected] 1 The Management Plan for Muir of Dinnet National Nature Reserve 2014 - 2024 The Management Plan for Muir of Dinnet National Nature Reserve 2014 - 2024 Foreword Muir of Dinnet NNR is close to the village of Dinnet, slightly north of the River Dee between the towns of Aboyne and Ballater in Aberdeenshire. Lying on the western edge of the Howe of Cromar, the Reserve extends from the River Dee to the high slopes of Culblean Hill and covers approximately 1166 hectares (ha). The reserve is set amidst a mix of low lying agricultural land, forestry at Cambus o' May and grouse moor towards the top of Culblean Hill. The A93, a popular tourist route known as "The North Deeside Road" and the A97 and B9119 all transect the Reserve, offering many views and points of access for visitors. The Reserve itself is defined by a landscape of ridges, hummocks and depressions left behind after the last glaciation, when this part of Scotland was covered by ice up to 1,000 metres deep. These features are nationally important examples of glacial landforms and they provide the foundations for the variety of habitats and species found at Muir of Dinnet today. Lochs Davan and Kinord lie in the central low-lying area of the Reserve. Loch Davan is fed by the Red Burn and the larger Logie Burn, which collect water from the fields and moorland north of the loch.

Statement of Importance: Dee Valley Special Landscape Area
Statement of Importance: Dee Valley Special Landscape Area Location and Boundaries This SLA includes the valley of the River Dee from Dinnet in the west to Peterculter in the east. It includes the river and associated landscapes, taking in the adjoining hills, and covers the settings of riverside towns such as Aboyne and Banchory. The boundary has been drawn to include landscapes which help to frame the river and its setting. The River Dee continues east through the administrative area of Aberdeen City to reach the North Sea. Designation identifies the strong identity of the Dee Valley, and its scenic qualities which are a combination of the river, with wooded valley sides rising to moorland hills, and occasional limestone outcrops. The importance of the Dee Valley for tourism, with its numerous visitor attractions and facilities including castles and estates that contribute to built heritage. The naturalness of the Dee Valley, with its river and broadleaf woodland is also recognised. The River Dee from the B974 at Banchory (Source: LUC) Designation Statement The Dee is one of Aberdeenshire’s major rivers, and the Dee Valley has a strong sense of place. It comprises an intact farmed valley landscape, with wooded sides rising to moorland hills. The Mounth rises to the south and the Grampian Outliers to the north. The valley has a strong sense of naturalness, created by the combination of river and broadleaf woodland. The ecological value of the river, its tributaries and its surroundings contributes to the landscape character, as well as being recognised as nationally and internationally important for nature conservation.

Issues General Concern was raised that there is a lack of service capacity within Aboyne in relation to the proposed population increase (109). An impact assessment should be undertaken of the proposed development to assess the effect on general local infrastructure (730, 1054). Concern was raised that there is an oversupply of housing in Aboyne and no need for additional allocations (188, 217, 1043) with one respondent noting that there is an oversupply specifically of housing that is not low cost (12). The MIR for Marr states that there is not a need for further allocations in Aboyne (1043).
