History

WESTHILL as we know it today celebrated its half-century in 2018.

The settlement came into being in 1859 when the two ancient estates of Wester Kinmundy and Blackhills were brought together, but it wasn’t until 1968 that former farmland started to be developed for housing.

Over the next 50 years the town expanded rapidly – and that continues today. Click here to read about the early days.
