Cookney
Cookney is a hamlet in Aberdeenshire, Scotland in proximity to Netherley in the Mounth of the Grampian Highlands. The community is situated on a hilltop approximately five miles northwest of Stonehaven and about three miles northwest of the Bridge of Muchalls. Cookney lies about two miles west of Muchalls Castle. From Cookney a portion of the ancient route of the Causey Mounth is visible to the east near Whinward Farm, although the track is not truly recognizable from that distance of about two miles. The Cookney Church is a prominent historic landmark of Cookney.
The Cookney Church was erected in the village in 1816 on lands owned by the Muchalls Castle Estate.
