Welcome to Ellon...
...as seen by those arriving on the A920 from Oldmeldrum. The burgh arms: per fesse azure and pean three garbs or (granted 1935) pay tribute to the ancient arms of the Earl of Buchan and feature the very unusual tincture (colour) of 'pean', a heraldic fur consisting of "ermine spots of gold on a black field". The motto of "Judge notch quhill ye end" (don't count your chickens before they're hatched) comes from the Buchan and Kennedy family mottoes. Information on the arms came from the invaluable 'Scottish Burgh & County Heraldry' by R M Urquhart.

River Ythan
On the south (right) bank of the river is a large area of housing, none of which is on the 1976 1:50,000 map. This indicates how fast Ellon has grown in recent decades.
