B9024

The B9024 is a cross-country B-road in northeast Scotland.

Westfield

The route starts on the B9001 in Glen Dronach and heads east across the glen, passing the Glendronach distillery and crossing the burn at a narrow bridge. It then climbs, steeply at first, out of the glen along a long straight which slowly levels out as it approaches a block of forestry. Still climbing at first, the route winds across the hills, running between fields and patches of woodland, passing several scattered houses but no settlement of any size, although Easterfield does merit a school down a side road. This is a landscape of gently rolling hills, and the road rolls too, left then right, up and down, with a more severe dip to cross the Burn of Tollo. Across the bridge, a sharper bend leads to a steeper climb out of the little valley.

After passing between two low hills, the route begins to follow the River Deveron downstream - although the river remains some distance away and on the far side of a low ridge. A steady descent above the Burn of Garble leads down to the Mill of Muiresk where the burn is crossed on a tighter double bend amongst houses. As the road climbs a little, it turns sharply right above a small lochan, probably the old mill pond for the next mill down the burn. It then levels out and strides eastwards across the fields, passing the grounds of Muiresk House and an industrial estate. Eventually the B9024 reaches the edge of Turriff. The road becomes lined with houses, some sitting below the road level and ends soon afterwards at a T-junction on the A947 on the southern edge of town.
