- Tillydrone abstract "Tillydrone is an area of the city of Aberdeen, Scotland. Lying north of the city centre and slightly north-west of Old Aberdeen, it is roughly bounded by the River Don, St Machar Drive, and the main Aberdeen-Inverness railway line. It is widely regarded as one of the most deprived areas of Aberdeen.The name is a corruption of the Scottish Gaelic "Tulach Droighne", meaning a knoll with thorn trees growing on it. The name is somewhat older than the housing estate which essentially comprises the area. It is colloquially referred to as Tilly.The housing estate was built as council housing and includes tower blocks and terraced tenement flats in addition to some low-rise terraced houses. As with most council housing stock in the UK, most of these properties have been purchased by their occupants. The proximity of the area to the University of Aberdeen resulted in some of the housing being rented to students, although the sheer cost of this housing has priced out most local families, and instead houses are being packed with 2-3 different families living in the one family home, often of mixed ethnicity. What little remains of the council housing has been claimed mainly by eastern European immigrants, with void rates dramatically reducing in 2006. Tillydrone has a small shopping arcade plus a few other shops and businesses including a pharmacy, a post office, an award winning butcher shop and a pub. There are also a school and care facilities for elderly people run by Aberdeen City Council.Between the main part of Tillydrone and the River Don is an extensive area of open and wooded land, which leads into the city's Seaton Park. At the edge of this, alongside Tillydrone Road, is the Wallace Tower, a turreted townhouse typical of pre-Georgian Aberdeen architecture which was moved stone by stone from its original city-centre location at the time of the construction of a Marks & Spencer shop next to the St. Nicholas Shopping Centre.The site of the Donside Paper Mill which lies between Tillydrone and the River Don is currently being prepared for construction of affordable housing.An Aberdeen City Council "blueprint" has earmarked the area for extensive redevelopment along with five other areas within Aberdeen.[citation needed]Plans are underway to construct a new bridge over the River Don in the Tillydrone area.".
