Bon-Accord Crescent Gardens
One of Aberdeen's lesser known parks looks pretty scruffy in the coronavirus crisis of 2020. The brick structure to the right of the large tree is B-listed (LB49361: http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB49361 ) as a "relatively unusual extant example of earlier 19th century garden architecture".

The Crabstane, Hardgate
This stone, about 1 foot square face, is set into the wall of a building on the south side of Aberdeen's former main road from the south. The plaque reads:
"The Crabstane. Boundary stone on lands belonging to John Crab, Baillie of the Burgh in 1314. The stone also marks the site of the skirmish in 1571 between the rival families of Gordon and Forbes and of an engagement in 1644 between the citizens of Aberdeen and the Royalist forces of the Marquis of Montrose".
