Little damage seems to have been done, but the storm was felt here with much more violence than that of last week. The following morning, the air was frosty, with a slight covering of snow on the ground, and the storm almost abated. #OnThisDay

These will build on the seven workshop discussions and provide a cross-cutting perspective, exploring tourism priorities and opportunities across Moray in greater depth.

Seven area-based workshops have been held providing invaluable insights into local geographic issues and opportunities.

            The work has involved the use of highly-skilled tradesmen, and most of the exterior renovation is almost complete. The emphasis will now shift inside the building, which has been converted to seven luxury flats, but at the moment it is not possible to estimate when the restoration will be complete.

            28 October 1882: CAPTURE OF A RARE FISH Two days ago, Mr George Findlay ( "Beaner") Seatown, Cullen, caught upon his line a fine specimen of the rainbow rawse, a fish that is very rarely to be found on the coast. It is native to the Mediterranean.
