Will review within next three days.♦ Dr. Blofeld 20:30, 2 August 2014 (UTC)
- Lead
- "Aberdeen City Architect" - why is architect capitalised?
- "Aberdeen City Architect" was his job title rather than his being an architect in Aberdeen City.
- History
- Link Panmure, Panmure House?
- Malcolm of Monymusk - I think you can remove "of Monymusk" because it is mentioned earlier
- Link Inverurie?
- linked and added "just north of" so there isn't a sea of blue links.
- "appears to remain" - "appears to have remained"
- " As Alexander's eldest son, also Alexander," -As Alexander's eldest son, also named Alexander,
- "Development of the estate policies[c] started by the Ogilvys was continued and the grandeur further enhanced when Sir Robert Abercromby, 5th Baronet, Lady Jane Abercromby's son, commissioned the building of the new mansion as its centrepiece, which was complemented by several other buildings.[6]" A bit of a mouthful, can you reword/rephrase?
- Delink Germany
- Mansion
- Delink River Deveron and Sir Robert Abercromby per OVERLINK
- Aberdeen City Architect -ditto
- Link canted, gables and flues for the architecturally retarded folk..
- Gardens
- "In 1906 some excavation work was undertaken on a circular tumulus that is within the estate" -do we know the archaeological team or archaeologist who did this?
- added - it was J. Graham Callander, Scottish archaeologist.
