Omega Stone

This stone is located in the amenity area, on the north side of Beach Esplanade, on line of Powis Burn, near confluence with River Don. It is marked "? ABD CR".

As the inscription suggests this stone is the final marker of Aberdeen's Inner and Outer Marches.

A slide of this image was kindly lent to Aberdeen City Libraries by Colin Johnston so that we could create a digital copy for public use.

The image was taken in the early 1980s when Colin worked as a teacher at Bridge of Don Academy. He led several current and former pupils, and staff members in an investigation into the location, physical condition and public knowledge of Aberdeen's historic boundary markers.
