Scope and Content East wing, Round Square, Aden House, Aberdeenshire From the 1750s to 1937 the Russell family built up the estate of Aden to a 4,000 hectare mix of private policies, farmland and woodland. Since 1980, 92 hectares of the estate has been managed by the local council as a country park and the stables, which date from 1800, have been renovated and turned into a museum of agriculture. This shows the east wing as it was in 1963, viewed from the east. Renovations were carried out in 1978-9 under the auspices of Banff & Buchan District Council, and the steading was returned to its former glory. Two rooms on the right have been recreated as the horseman's house, as it would have been in the 1930s. The 'Aberdeenshire Farming Museum' is open from Easter until the end of October. There is a gallery above the museum which features changing exhibitions. There is also a café, toilets, offices and a shop in the former stables. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
