March Stone 21

This stone is located in field south west of Westfield Cottage. It is marked "21 ABD". Westfield Farm and the fields with these stones is found between Contlaw Road, to the south, and the road called Blacktop, to the north. The Den of Murtle is nearby to the east and Milltimber, on North Deeside Road, is far to the south.

The marrker was described in 1698 as upon a "knowhead" (hillock head) with a cairn.

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.
