Cryne Corse Mounth is an old droving road which ran south across the high ground from the Dee valley in Aberdeenshire, eastern Scotland. Much of the route is now afforested. It is one of a number of old tracks which passed over the Mounth, an eastern extension of the Grampian Mountains. The route departs the modern A957 road at a sharp bend at Spyhill and climbs steeply to the vicinity of Red Beard's Well near the Durris transmitting station. The well itself is named from the leader of a gang of highwaymen who lay in wait for travellers on this route. At its south end the route meets the public road near Cleuchead north of Glenbervie. Almost all of the route now lies within an area of conifer plantations, known in part as Fetteresso Forest. Edward I is said to have used the route in 1296, as subsequently did William Wallace. Cattle were driven along the route to Herscha Hill, north of Fordoun where an annual cattle fair known as St Palladius' or Paldy Fair was held each July. An alternative name for the route is Cryne Cross. Parts of the route are annotated on modern Ordnance Survey mapping as 'Cryne Corse Road (Track)'.

Drumlithie is a village in the Howe of the Mearns in southern Aberdeenshire, Scotland. Situated seven miles south of Stonehaven in the parish of Glenbervie, it is affectionately known by locals as "Skite", although the origin of this name remains disputed. The name "Drumlithie" may incorporate the Gaelic word druim, meaning "ridge". Previously a weaving village and dating back at least to the beginning of the 17th century, Drumlithie has a small steeple at its heart. This unique structure was built in 1777 and was rung to for the regulation of the meal hours of the weavers. The story goes that when it was first built, the locals were so proud of it that they would take it indoors when it rained. Drumlithie is noted for its appearance in the classic Lewis Grassic Gibbon novel Sunset Song, while neighbouring Glenbervie is the final resting place of the great-grandparents of famous Scottish poet Robert Burns. Drumlithie is also twinned with Couture-d'Argenson in France. The village school is called Glenbervie Primary, and is attended by around 70 local children from the village and surrounding area.

The Stonehaven derailment was a fatal railway accident that occurred at 09:38 BST on 12 August 2020, when a passenger train returning to Aberdeen hit a landslip, near Carmont, west of Stonehaven in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, following severe rain. Of the nine people aboard, three were killed, and six were injured. The accident was the first in the United Kingdom in which a passenger was killed on a train since the 2007 Grayrigg derailment, the first major accident involving a High Speed Train since the 2004 Ufton Nervet rail crash, and the first fatal accident in which a train hit a landslip since the 1995 Ais Gill rail accident.
