Inverkeithny
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Inverkeithny is a village in the Formartine area of Aberdeenshire, Scotland. The village lies near where the Burn of Forgue flows into the River Deveron, 7 miles (11 km) west of Turriff and 3 miles (5 km) south-east of Aberchirder. In 1990, it was described by Charles McKean as "near-deserted".[1]
Netherdale House, an Italianate mansion on a bluff high above the river, was built in 1774,[1] while Muiresk House dates to before 1604.[1] Carnousie, a Z-plan chateau of the Ogilvies of Carnousie, was built in 1577.[1]
