- The County of Kincardine, also known as Kincardineshire or The Mearns (from A' Mhaoirne meaning 'The Stewartry') was a local government county on the coast of northeast Scotland. It was bounded by Aberdeenshire on the north and west, and by Angus on the south. The Kincardineshire name is retained for a lieutenancy area, and Kincardine and Mearns is a committee area of the Aberdeenshire Council. The county town was originally the town of Kincardine (not, as many believe, the village of Kincardine O'Neil, which was in the County of Aberdeen). The town of Kincardine, however, ceased to exist during the Middle Ages. The only visible sign of its previous existence is the ruin of Kincardine Castle, 2 miles north-east of Fettercairn . In 1296, King John Balliol wrote a letter of surrender from the castle to Edward I of England after a short war which marked the beginning of the wars of Scottish independence. In 1600 Parliament caused the government of Kincardineshire to be conducted at the Stonehaven Tolbooth. The county used to go as far north as the River Dee but in 1891 the Royal Burgh of Torry was incorporated into Aberdeen. The burgh of Stonehaven became the county town, and the county included three other burghs, Banchory, Inverbervie and Laurencekirk. The county was abolished in 1975, and was subsumed into the Kincardine and Deeside district of the Grampian region. When the Grampian region was divided into unitary council areas in 1996, the district was absorbed into the Aberdeenshire council area.
- Kincardineshire, også kjent som County of Kincardine eller The Mearns var et grevskap i Skottland. Det grenset mot Aberdeenshire i nord og vest, og mot Angus i sør. Området er nå et stattholderskap. Grevskapet hadde navn etter administrasjonsbyen Kincardine. Mange har feilaktig trodd at det opprinnelige administrasjonsstedet var Kincardine O Neil, men den landsbyen lå i Aberdeen. Kincardine opphørte å eksistere i middelalderen, og det eneste synlige spor etter byen er ruinen av Kincardine Castle. Fra 1600 ble grevskapet administrert fra Stonehavne Tolbooth. Stonehaven ble ny grevskapsby. Den var en av fire burghs i Kincardineshire; de andre var Banchory, Inverbervie og Laurencekirk. Grevskapet ble oppløst i 1975, og innlemmet i distriktet Kincardine and Deeside i Grampian. Regionen ble delt inn i enhetlige myndigheter i 1996, og distriktet ble da en del av Aberdeenshire.
