Corrennie Granite was sourced from at least three quarries near the village of Tillyfourie, in Aberdeenshire. The stone comes from the Corrennie Granite Intrusion, which formed during the Ordovician Period (c. 450 million years ago) when Scotland was south of the Equator at roughly the same latitude as northern Angola is today. Corrennie Granite was used locally, regionally and nationally, mainly to form masonry. Corrennie Granite is not quarried for building stone today.
