A944 road

The A944 road connects Aberdeen with Strathdon in north-east Scotland. It originates at the Lang Stracht in the city, which is a re-routing as, until 1999, the road left Aberdeen by way of Queens Road in the City Centre. However this route could not cope with the traffic. The road then passes Westhill by way of Elrick, passes through Dunecht, Millbank and then Alford. The road eventually meets the A939 road to Tomintoul.

The village, which history dates back to 1170, was bought by the Forbses in the 1560s, who later built the House of Monymusk. The Forbses claim they built the present House of Monymusk from the blackened stones of the old Priory.
