   Cromdale. Gaelic Cromdhail, from Gaelic crom 'crooked' and dal 'valley, dale'(Celtic Place Names of Scotland-Watson) is a village in Strathspey, in the Highland council area of Scotland, and one of the ancient parishes which formed the combined ecclesiastical (later civil) parish of "Cromdale, Inverallan and Advie" in Morayshire. The present small, growing village of Cromdale lies on either side of where the A95 road crosses Cromdale Burn, between Grantown-on-Spey and Aberlour; this bridge is about 500 metres south of the confluence of the burn with the River Spey. The village was within Inverness-shire until 1869, when it was moved by the Inverness and Elgin County Boundaries Act 1870 to the Morayshire. It remained part of Morayshire until 1975, when the county was divided between the Highland and Grampian regions; it is now within the Highland Council Area. The village retained Morayshire as its official postal address for many years after the change in local government boundaries. The parish church and cemetery are located beside the River Spey at the end of Kirk Road beside the bridge which is the latest of three which replaced the nearby ferry. The bridge was financed by local residents, having been obtained as a War Surplus item from the War Office and erected in 1922 at a cost of £ 6889. The remains of an older bridge can be seen a short distance upstream; this (much lighter) bridge was swept away in 1894, the 1922 bridge replaced one that collapsed in 1921.About halfway along Kirk Road is Cromdale Station which closed in the 1960s but survives in private hands along with some preserved railway paraphernalia. It lies on the route of the now closed Great North of Scotland Railway line from Boat of Garten to Craigellachie. To the South of Cromdale is Balmenach Distillery which was served by a branch line running from Cromdale Station that passed under the main road alongside Cromdale Burn. This distillery has had a chequered history in recent years but is again in production. The old school had become the Cromdale Outdoor Education Centre and stands opposite the Haugh Hotel. The Battle of Cromdale took place in 1690 on the Haughs of Cromdale, about 2 miles East of the village. The village is within the Cairngorms National Park.

1. cromdale

   Referred to as 'Crimedale' by local youth, Cromdale is an older inner city residential neighbourhood in north east Edmonton, Alberta, Canada overlooking the North Saskatchewan River valley. There was extensive redevelopment in the neighbourhood during the 1960s when several apartment buildings were constructed. Approximately one out of ten (10%) residences in the neighbourhood were constructed before the end of World War II. Two out of three residences (66.6%) were constructed during the 1960s and 1970s when several apartment buildings were constructed in the neighbourhood. A number of residences were constructed between 1946 and 1960 (8.7%) and after 1980 (14.6%). The majority of residents live in rented apartments and apartment style condominiums. Single family dwellings are a minority, constituting only 14% of all residences. The neighbourhood has highly irregular boundaries. It is bounded on the south by the North Saskatchewan River Valley, the west boundary is 84 Street, and the north west boundary is the Canadian National Railway right of way. The Kinnaird Ravine divides the neighbourhood almost in half. For a long time the Cromdale Hotel has plagued the 118 Ave area and surrounding community. The hotel provided an environment to house a criminal element that spilled out into the neighbouring streets and terrorized local residence. Gangs known to frequent the area include the Alberta Warriors, Crazy Dragons and Crazy Dragon Killaz among others.
