| RIVER DEVERON | River Deveron | Continued | [continued from page 3] all the great or considerable windings, is about 60 miles. Its connections with respectively Aberdeenshire and Banffshire are so fitful, leading it now with one county, now into the other, and now along the boundary between them, as to render it more a puzzler than an expounder of political topography; yet, in on long sweep, from above Glass church to the vicinity of Rothiemay church, it runs entirely within Aberdeenshire, and over another long sweep, from a point 4 miles west-south-west of Turriff to its embouchure at Banff, it forms almost entirely the boundary-line between the counties *** The river in the upper part of its course, is a mountain-stream, careering along a series of glens, always rapid, sometimes impetuous, and occasionally subject to tremendous inundations" Fullarton's Gazetteer |
