Kingswells

Kingswells

Kingswells is a suburb of Aberdeen, Scotland, situated west of the city, east of Westhill, north of Cults and south of Dyce. It has existed as a village for centuries, but only in the 1980s did it expand greatly as a result of the boom in the oil industry. It has few amenities given its relatively large size, with no secondary school and a relative lack of shopping facilities, although it does have a primary school, convenience store and some other shopping facilities.
