Portknockie
Portknockie (Scottish Gaelic: Port Chnocaidh, the hilly port) is a coastal village on the Moray Firth in northeast Scotland, in Moray. (Family historians will note that this Banffshire village's name is written as Portknockies in the Old Parish Registers. This would suggest that the port's name referred to not one, but two rocky hills at the hythe - the Port Hill and the Greencastle. ) Nearby towns include Banff, Buckie, Findochty and Cullen.
Bin of Cullen
Bin of Cullen or Bin Hill is a hill in Moray, Scotland directly inland from Findochty. Bin of Cullen is 320 m in height and visible from considerable distances, such as Longman Hill to the east and Lossiemouth to the West. There was formerly a large cairn at the top of the hill but in 2002 this mysteriously disappeared.
Buckpool
Buckpool is a village on the coast of Moray, Scotland. Originally known as Nether Buckie it is now effectively a part of the town of Buckie as the nearby fishing settlements merged as they expanded. Buckpool Harbour is now disused and is filled with stones, although Cluny Harbour at Buckie is nearby.
