What is Kintore, Aberdeenshire?
{{Orphan|date=May 2009}} [[Image:Kintore, Town House.jpg|thumb|275px|The Town House, Kintore]] '''Kintore''' ([[Scottish Gaelic language|Gaelic]]: ''Ceann Tòrr'') is a town and former [[royal burgh]] near [[Inverurie]] in [[Aberdeenshire]], [[Scotland]], now bypassed by the [[A96 road]] between [[Aberdeen]] and [[Inverness]]. The name Kintore comes from the Gaelic, Ceann-an-torr. ''Ceann'' means the head, or the end, and ''Torr'' means a round hill. So the name signifies that the town was at the head or end of a round hill. This probably refers to [[Tuach Hill]] to the south of the town. {{coord|57.23604|N|2.34621|W|region:GB_source:enwiki-osgb36(NJ792162)|display=title}} {{UK-stub}} [[Category:Towns in Aberdeenshire]]
