The Triplekirks in Aberdeen should be the Triple Kirks (2 words). On the same lines, the Stag Head Hotel in South Queensferry should be the Staghead Hotel (I've uploaded some photos showing the correct names).
Another anomoly is the Brentwood Hotel in Aberdeen. In all the Pub Guides, Beer Guides and even the local CAMRA rag it is known as "Carriages" but there were no signs on the building itself that stated this name. Might be an idea to include "Carriages" in brackets in the pub title.
As you have probably already found out, I did quite a bit of local pub research whilst wandering around Aberdeenshire. I am uploading photos by the bucketload (still plenty more to go), mostly on pubs that had no previous pictures and will get round to reviews in due course. Unfortunately several photos taken through windscreens at high speed didn't meet the quality control check but I have enough to keep you busy for a few days yet and hopefully a big hole in the rural area database will now be partly plugged.
