History[edit]

The Coy Burn along with certain other natural waters of Scotland has been under study for its role in Salmon spawning.[2] A number of prehistorical features lie nearby including Balbridie and Bucharn to the south of the River Dee. Vicinity historical features include Crathes Castle, Maryculter House and Muchalls Castle.
