Inverurie
Inverurie is a Royal Burgh and town in Aberdeenshire, Scotland. It is situated at the convergence of the rivers Ury and Don, approximately 16 miles (26 km) north west of Aberdeen. According to the 2001 Census, the town has a permanent population of about 10885. Inverurie's earliest known charter go back to 1558, with its modern-day development occurring after the structure of the Aberdeenshire Canal. This connected Port Elphinstone with Aberdeen Harbour in 1806. The Inverurie Locomotive Works, running between 1905 and 1969, brought about a modest boost in size and prosperity, however it was not up until the 'Oil Boom' of the last quarter of the 20th century that the town turned into much of what is identified as its present form. The town centre is triangular and is dominated by the grand Town Hall, which was developed in 1862. In the middle of the 'square', as it is known in the area, is the Inverurie and District War Memorial, topped by a lone Gordon Highlander looking out over the town. The primary shopping areas include the Market Place and West High Street, which branch out from the centre to the more residential part of the town. In recent times, Inverurie has seen a growing range of Aberdeen commuters going to live there, making it considered as 'the fastest growing town in Great Britain'. The town has a range of transportation links contributing to its attraction as a place in which to commute from, being situated on the A96 road and served by Inverurie train station on the Aberdeen to Inverness Line. The closest airport is Aberdeen Airport at Dyce. For all of your home improvements, make sure to find credible contractors in Inverurie to make certain of quality.
