About New Deer

New Deer is a settlement in Aberdeenshire, North East Scotland, situated in the valley of Deer at the crossroads of various roads in the Howe of Buchan. Founded by monks from Deer Abbey, it features a historical chapel at Auchreddie, meaning "field of the bog myrtle," and is positioned on both sides of a slope leading to a tributary of South Ugie Water. While the name Auchreddie has become less prominent over time, the southern part of the village still retains this designation, making it a point of interest for local planning applications.

There are currently no active flood warnings for the New Deer area, indicating a relatively low flood risk at present. This is a positive factor for both existing residents and those considering property purchases or new developments.
