Aberdeen North (UK Parliament constituency)

[1][2] There was also an Aberdeen North constituency of the Scottish Parliament, created in 1999 with the boundaries of the Westminster seat of that time.

It includes affluent suburbs like Kingswells and Bridge of Don, alongside areas with significant social housing within the city proper such as Tillydrone, Northfield, Mastrick and Bucksburn.

[3] Following the 2023 Periodic Review of Westminster constituencies which came into effect for the 2024 general election, the newly redrawn Aberdeen North consists of the following: The Bridge of Don, Dyce and Danestone areas were transferred back from the now abolished constituency of Gordon.

To partly compensate, the city centre and harbour areas (George Street/Harbour ward) were transferred to Aberdeen South.

For the 1950 general election boundaries were redefined again, by the House of Commons (Redistribution of Seats) Act 1949.

For the February 1974 general election there was, again, no change to the boundaries of Aberdeen North, but a review had defined the constituency in terms of a new list of wards.

The enlarged district included areas covered by the constituencies of West Aberdeenshire and North Angus and Mearns.

In this period the constituency was made up of the City of Aberdeen District electoral divisions of Ashgrove, Brimmond, Kittybrewster, Mastrick, Northfield East, Northfield West, St Machar, Seaton, Summerfield, and Woodside.

In this period the constituency was made up of the City of Aberdeen District electoral divisions of Balgownie, Brimmond, Danestone, Mastrick, Middleton, Northfield, Summerfield, and West Don, as provided for by the Parliamentary Constituencies (Scotland) Order 1995.
