Stonehaven

Stonehaven (; ) is a town in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It lies on Scotland's northeast coast and had a population of 11,602 ( Scotland's Census 2011). After the demise of the town of Kincardine, which was gradually abandoned after the destruction of its Royal castle in the Wars of Independence, the Scottish Parliament made Stonehaven the successor county town of Kincardineshire. Stonehaven had grown around an Iron Age fishing village, now the "Auld Toon" ("old town"), and expanded inland from the seaside. As late as the 16th century, old maps indicate the town was called Stonehyve, Stonehive, Pont also adding the alternative Duniness. It is known informally to locals as Stoney.

The town is served by Stonehaven railway station, and lies just to the east of the A90 road.
