Scope and Content Township, Tonnagaoithe, Glen Dee, Mar Lodge Estate, Aberdeenshire Townships are clusters of dwelling houses and barns, enclosures, kilns and cultivation rigs. They were the homes of people practising mixed farming, both cultivation of crops and stock-rearing, mostly cattle. On the southern edge of the township is a corn-drying kiln and barn. This view is taken from within the barn, looking along the flue into the circular bowl of the kiln. The bowl survives almost 2m high and is 2.6m in diameter at its base. Mar Lodge estate was part of the medieval Earldom of Mar. The Forest of Mar became a hunting reserve in medieval times and was revived as such in the 19th century, after a period of sheep-farming in the 18th and early 19th centuries.
