The old Gordon Arms coaching inn in Kincardine O'Neil Aberdeenshire now a Chinese takeaway and up for sale


Kincardine O'Neil lies on an important ford over the River Dee. It was where the cattle drovers met and took cattle across the river. There were three annual fairs culminating in the Bartle Fair held early in September, when many thousands of cattle were bought and sold on Bartle Muir, 500m north of the village, over a three day period. The Inn was also was a staging post on the coach service to Braemar, while in winter it often served as the terminus for the service from Aberdeen.
