Monquhitter is a parish in Aberdeenshire, situated about 35 miles NNW of Aberdeen. Its main settlements are the village of Cuminestown, population 550 (2018 est,) and the hamlet of Garmond. The parish was disjoined from Turriff Parish in 1649 and it is named after the farm owned by the Cumine family, on which the original church was sited. Cuminestown is a ‘Planned village’ built in the 1750s and designed by Sir Archibald Grant of Monymusk, who was a friend of Joseph Cumine of Auchry. Grant's plan for the Cuminestown followed closely his designs used for New Keith, and Archiestown, other planned villages in Moray. The construction of the Cuminestown was followed soon afterwards by the adjacent hamlet of Garmond.
