Old Skene Road
This was once the main road between Aberdeen and Skene. Today it is a dead end, by-passed by the dual carriageway to the south which caters for commuters living in expanded and new settlements like Westhill.

Former Kingswells School
Built 1932. When Geographer Lizzie photographed it in 2005 it was the nursery and infant school (https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/11449 ) but it now serves as a council-run 'outdoor adventure centre', which, according to the Aberdeen City Council website, serves school groups as well as stag and hen parties.

All quiet on the Old Lang Stracht
The Old Lang Stracht (Old Long Straight), which was once the main road to Alford, has been bypassed by the new alignment of the A944, a few hundred metres to the south. Some cows can be glimpsed in the field to the right.

Kingswells Nursery and Infant School
Originally built in 1932 now with portacabins to cope with numbers of children in this growing community. The Junior part of the school is in more modern buildings in the centre of Kingswells which is itself being extended as so many new homes are being built in Kingswells.
