Scope and Content Township, Lochan a'Chreagain, 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. Also known as Little Allanaquoich, this township lies on a terrace above the River Dee. The farmhouse is the long building nearest to the modern track. The smaller buildings may be reused shieling-huts. 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.
