The graticule for 57,-2 includes Aberdeen City and the surrounding area.

  • The furthest northwest point on land is approximately 10 miles east of Elgin.
  • The furthest northeast point on land is Fraserburgh.
  • The southwest bound is a few miles ESE of Ballater.
  • The furthest southeast point on land is approximately 2 miles north of Stonehaven.

Peterhead is not included in this graticule, but since Peterhead's graticule contains a very small landmass, any people from Peterhead should probably pretend they're from Aberdeen.

Notable Events

2009-04-01: Not an April Fools' joke, the global hash is in this graticule! It's on a hill near Alford, about an hour's drive west of Aberdeen. It does not seem to be on private property:
