ABERGELDIE, seat on the Dee, 2 miles east of Balmoral, Aberdeenshire. The Birks of Abergeldie are the subject of an old melody, transferred by Burns to his 'Birks o' Aberfeldy.' The mansion is a modernized, ancient, castellated edifice, and, together with the grounds, was purchased by the late Prince Consort, and is now included in Balmoral demesne.
