Dudwick, an estate in Ellon parish, Aberdeenshire, 4 miles NNE of Ellon village. The semi-castellated mansion on it was the seat of General James King (1589-1652), the Swedish veteran, who, by Charles I., was created Lord Eythin or Ythan in 1642. Having long been a farmhouse, it was demolished within the last twenty years. Dudwick Hill (572 feet) is one of the highest points in Buchan.
