Ronald,

On the 1896 Ordnance Survey Map reprint of Sheet 76, Inverurie, there is a
Bandodle marked about half a mile from the Kincardine O'Neill parish border
but actually in Midmar. Its about 4 miles NNE of Torphins just north of the
B9119 road. That may not be the right one as I don't think the borders have
changed in that area.
