The area encompasses the neighbourhoods of Tillydrone, Seaton and Old Aberdeen on the northern edge of Aberdeen, Scotland. It mixes inner‑city housing and student accommodation with generous green space - most notably Seaton Park - and the compact, historic streets around the university, giving a clear contrast between older granite buildings and more modern estates.
Old Aberdeen is the historic core, home to the University of Aberdeen and its medieval college buildings, while Tillydrone and Seaton have long traditions of community activism, local services and ongoing regeneration projects. The ward’s character is shaped by student life, local social housing, volunteer groups and easy access to the city centre, so you get a fascinating blend of history, civic energy and everyday neighbourhood life.
