Aberdeenshire Canal
text:
The Aberdeenshire Canal was a waterway in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, designed by John Rennie, which ran from the port of Aberdeen to Port Elphinstone, Inverurie. It was originally planned to reach Monymusk, but had been truncated by the time an act of Parliament was obtained in 1796.

Some of the workmanship was sub-standard, and several of the locks failed soon afterwards, but they were reconstructed,
