Wikipedia: Banchory-Devenick is a village approximately two kilometers south of the city of Aberdeen, Scotland in the Lower Deeside area of Aberdeenshire. (The village should not be confused by the historic civil parish of the same name which generally is positioned across the River Dee to the north). The County of Kincardine, also known as Kincardineshire or The Mearns (from A' Mhaoirne meaning 'The Stewartry') was a local government county on the coast of northeast Scotland. It was bounded by Aberdeenshire on the north and west and by Angus on the south.
