==History==
Doonie Point is slightly east of the ancient Causey Mounth trackway, which road was constructed on high ground to make passable this only medieval route from coastal points south from Stonehaven to Aberdeen. This ancient trackway specifically connects the River Dee crossing (where the present Bridge of Dee is situated) via Portlethen Moss, Muchalls Castle and Stonehaven to the south.〔(C.Michael Hogan. ''Causey Mounth'', Megalithic Portal, ed. A. Burnham, Nov. 3, 2007 )〕 The route was that taken by William Keith, 7th Earl Marischal and the Marquess of Montrose when they led a Covenanter army of 9000 men in the battle of the Civil War in 1639.〔Watt, Archibald, ''Highways and Byways around Kincardineshire'', Stonehaven Heritage Society (1985)〕
