With regard to buildings, in 2016/2017 substantial work was undertaken on the Manse, the Church Bell at Portknockie and the rewiring of Findochty Church Hall. Both Churches have been proactive in undertaking active stewardship campaigns linked to Time, Talents and Money. Additional Information Environment Portknockie and Findochty are on the superb Moray Coast – an area which offers a wonderful quality of living. Situated between dramatic cliffs and low hills, these coastal traditional fishing villages and their rural surroundings offer inspiration all year round. Between Portknockie and the neighbouring picturesque village of Cullen is one of the finest sand beaches in Scotland while the countryside has diverse flora and fauna and is particularly beautiful in spring when the gorse is in bloom. The Moray Coastal Path links the parishes and provides wonderful views north over to Caithness and Sutherland, while the Hill of Maud and Bin of Cullen to the south are areas of mature woodland with many paths and tracks which encourage exploration. Economy The neighbouring town of Buckie, with a population of over 8,000 people is the main place for the provision of jobs and services including Supermarkets, independent shops, and GP Practices, hospital and emergency services. Findochty has a Post Office, a general store and a chemist. Portknockie has a Post Office, general store, two hairdressers and a chemist. There are licensed restaurant and hotel facilities within both villages. Fishing and fishing-related industries are the traditional mainstays of the area although farming is important in the landward area around the parishes. The oil industry is now an important source of employment. The area is immensely popular as a destination for holidaymakers. Visitor numbers in Moray are in excess of 750,000 each year many drawn by the area’s famous clear blue coastal waters and sandy beaches. Hallmark events include the Keswick in Buckie Convention, Piping at Forres, the Spirit of Speyside Whisky Festival, Speyfest and various Highland Games gatherings. The Malt Whisky Trail highlights the area’s numerous distilleries. Education Each village has its own Primary School with Nursery provision. Secondary education is provided at Buckie High School and there are further education colleges within easy travelling distance, with Moray College, Elgin being part of the University of the Highlands and Islands. There are two universities in Aberdeen. Nearby Activities Rainbows, Brownies, Guides, Boys Brigade, Junior Football, Bowling Clubs, Fitness Classes, Walking Groups, Golf Courses, Leisure Centre, Swimming Pool, Mountain Biking, Sea and River Fishing, Rowing and a Highland League Football Team (Buckie Thistle).

  • Ronnie's Cabs
    transport guide FOREWORD The Moray Forum is a constituted voluntary organisation that was established to provide a direct link between the Area Forums and the Moray Community Planning Partnership. The Forum is made up of two representatives of each of the Area Forums and meets on a regular basis. Further information about The Moray Forum is available on: www.yourmoray.org.uk Area Forums are recognised by the Moray Community Planning Partnership as an important means of engaging local people in the Community Planning process. In rural areas - such as Moray - transport is a major consideration, so in September 2011 the Moray Forum held its first transport seminar to look at the issues and concerns that affect our local communities in respect of access to transport. Two actions that came from that event was the establishment of a Passenger Forum and a Transport Providers Network. This work was taken forward by the Moray Forum Transport Working Group made up of representatives of the Area Forums, Moray Council, NHS Grampian, tsiMORAY, and community transport schemes. In September 2013 the Working Group repeated the seminar to see how much progress had been made on the actions and issues identified in 2011. As a direct result of the work of the Group this Directory has been produced in order to address an on-going concern that has been expressed of the lack of information on what transport is available in Moray, the criteria for accessing certain transport services, and where to go for further advice. The Moray Forum Transport Working Group would like to acknowledge the help of all the people who provided information for this Directory, and thereby made a contribution towards the integration of public, private and community transport services within Moray.

  • 2000 Jan 4 Moray Council Chief Executive to Leave
    2000 Jan 4 Moray Council Chief Executive to leave - The Moray Council has agreed to differ with its suspended Chief Executive and will allow him to leave its employment to take up a position in England. The move has not come as any great surprise to those who have been keeping an eye on affairs . Mr Stewart who moved to Moray from the Western Isles had only been Chief Executive for a short time, being suspended for a matter of months. Until the position of Chief Executive is filled the work will be carried on by acting Chie Executives Alistair Keddie and Ms Karen Williams. Salvation Army , Christmas Day lunch - This proved to be the success it has always been - a day to remember by those who were present. Banffshire Field Club - (see page 7) Mrs Phyllis Goodall gave a talk on names on the landscape of the Cabrach. This being based on a project carried out by Professor Nicolaisen at Aberdeen University. Most of the upland places and water course were Gaelic names filtered through north east Scots pronunciation and the English phonetic spelling of the map-makers e.g. Ardwell, Belcherrie and Craigline. On the other hand Scots/English names appear in Upper Howbog and Broomknowes attached to marshy hollows or bare windswept ridges- not just descriptive of the topography like the Gaelic predecessors but they put a subtle emphasis on the less than attractive nature of the terrain when it comes to prospective agricultural usage as Professor Nicolaisen suggests. It is interesting, said Mrs Goodall that more of the Scots/English names of buildings in the Cabrach have disappeared than have the Gaelic ones.

  • Findochty Harbour Pontoons Consultation Event
    Oct 05, 2016 15:29 BST Findochty harbour pontoons consultation event A consultation event is to be held in Findochty on Saturday week (October 15) to give local people and boat owners the opportunity to comment on initial plans for developing pontoon facilities at the harbour. Moray Council is preparing a funding bid to the European Fisheries Fund for the project and is keen to get the views of harbour users and the local community ahead of the bid being submitted. The council has already earmarked £107,000 towards the overall cost and additional funding is being sought from other sources, including the EFF. The harbours team have committed to designing the new pontoon system in conjunction with the harbour users and community of Findochty. People are being invited to share their own ideas during the event which will run from 10am to 12 noon at two venues in Findochty – the Howf at the harbour and at the village hall. Moray Council’s harbours manager, Duncan Brown, said: “The timescale is tight in relation to submitting the funding bid to the EFF and we want to get input from harbour users and local people prior to the detailed application being made.” Moray Council area stretches from Tomintoul in the south to the shores of the Moray Firth, from Keith in the east to Forres in the west. The council and its 4,500 employees respond to the needs of 95,510 residents in this beautiful part of Scotland, which nestles between Aberdeenshire and the Highlands. Famous for its colony of dolphins, fabulous beaches and more malt whisky distilleries than any where else in Scotland, Moray is a thriving area and a great place to live.
