Arnhall, an estate, with a mansion, in Fettercairn parish, Kincardineshire, at the boundary with Forfarshire, 6½ miles W by S of Laurencekirk. The estate was purchased by Mr Brodie, from Sir David Carnegie, in 1796, for £22,500; had been undergoing great improvement; and continued in Mr Brodie's hands to undergo much further improvement; was sold in 1814 to Mr John Shand for £70,000, and afterwards, in reclamation of moss, and in other ways, was further greatly improved. A small establishment is on it for carding wool and making coarse woollen cloth.
