Bieldside railway station served the Bieldside area within the parish of Peterculter from 1897 to 1937[1] on the Deeside Railway that ran from Aberdeen (Joint) to Ballater. This area was the location of a number of mansion houses and estates such as Woodthorpe, Dalmunzie, The Firs, etc., some built as a result of the railway.[2]
