Track or Path?
This is marked as a path on the 1:50,000 map, but as a track on the 1:25,000. I didn't follow it all the way because it was wet underfoot and sometimes the whins were rather close on both sides.

Upper Ardgrain
I am told that Ardgrain Hill is made up of ultramafic rocks, but I did not feel disposed to run the gauntlet of the bull(s?) in this field to check it out. Sometimes hearsay just has to suffice.

Nether Ardgrain
This is believed to be the oldest house of its kind in Aberdeenshire. Built in 1629 by the Kennedys of Ellon and extended in the 18th century, it is a Grade A listed building. The owner's web site at http://www.ardgrain.com/ardgrain has historical material about Ardgrain. The name is probably Gaelic from 'ard' meaning 'high' and 'grian' meaning 'sun'.
