Stirling, Aberdeenshire → Stirling Village, Aberdeenshire – The name was formally changed in 2004 to avoid confusion with the city of Stirling, and the new name now appears on all local signage. 188.30.222.141 (talk) 09:04, 1 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2020-07-01T09:04:00.000Z","author":"188.30.222.141","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-188.30.222.141-2020-07-01T09:04:00.000Z-Requested_move_1_July_2020","replies":["c-Crouch,_Swale-2020-07-04T08:43:00.000Z-188.30.222.141-2020-07-01T09:04:00.000Z","c-Buidhe-2020-07-10T04:37:00.000Z-188.30.222.141-2020-07-01T09:04:00.000Z"]}}-->

Support but Stirling Village alone seems fine since even though there are other villages called "Stirling" there isn't another village called "Stirling Village" per WP:SMALLDETAILS similar to Berkshire (a county in England)/Berkshire County (a redirect to a county in Massachusetts). Although the OS does seem to only have "Stirling" in their database, the map shows "Stirling Village".

Charles McKean states the quarry is in Cairngall, which is three miles west of Peterhead. Further research neeeded.

Quarrying and crafting of high-quality granite from Cairnhall Quarry developed on a commercial scale during the 18th and 19th centuries, the granite being used not only locally but further afield in many public, private and church buildings.^[1]

Examples from London include extensive use in Australia House, the former Stock Exchange building, India Office, Covent Garden, the Carlton Club and the original fountains in Trafalgar Square designed by Charles Barry and built by McDonald & Leslie, Aberdeen (one of which is now in Confederation Park, Ottawa, and the other in the Wascana Centre, Regina, Saskatchewan, following remodelling in 1939).^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5]

The quarry officially closed on 16 June 1956, due to inability to compete on an economic basis for bulk construction requirements, rather than the more traditional architectural usages for which it had become so well known in the 19th century.^[6]
