Notes[edit]

In the Aberdeen Council's pamphlet Boundary Stones Trail,[1] stone 69 is shown on the map as being south of 70. However, 69 is described as being in Thistle Lane and 70 in Thistle Street whereas Thistle Lane runs north from Thistle Street. The article's map shows 69 to the south, in geographical sequence. The Council's numbering of Alpha as 66 and Omega as 67 has been followed on the article's map even though it is idiosyncratic and unfortunate. The actual stones are lettered but not numbered. CR stone stands for City Royalty or City Regality. Thincat (talk) 12:57, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
