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. This township near the River Dee consists of 11 buildings and a corn-drying kiln, enclosures and cultivated rigs. The nearest two well-preserved buildings with coursed stone walls are the latest in date. 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.
