Ellon, Aberdeenshire
Ellon ((スコットランド・ゲール語:Eilean)) is a town in Aberdeenshire, Scotland, approximately north of Aberdeen, lying on the River Ythan which has one of the few undeveloped river estuaries on the Eastern coast of Scotland. It is in the ancient region of Formartine. Its name is believed to derive from the Gaelic term ''Eilean'', signifying an island, on account of the presence of an island in the River Ythan, which historically offered a convenient fording point.〔(Aberdeenshire Towns Partnership ) accessed 5 September 2009〕
== Places of interest ==
Places of interest within the town include the ruins of Ellon Castle, surrounded by walls known as the ''Deer Dyke'', and the ''Auld Brig'', a category A listed bridge across the Ythan, built in 1793 and still in use as a pedestrian bridge.
The Riverside Park offers walkways alongside the Ythan, from which herons, salmon, trout and otters may be observed.
