Church of Turriff Remains of the medieval church of Turriff. In December 1861 portions of the choir were taken away, and on removing the stones from a window in the south wall, there appeared on the splay of one of the sides a human figure painted on the plaster in bright colours. Another painting was found on the other splay but was unfortunately never recorded and it was broken up and destroyed!

Duff House Mausoleum This elaborate building was erected by James Duff in 1790, when he was raised to the rank of 2nd Earl of Fife. He moved the remains of his forebears here, including those of his father the first earl, who built Duff House. For full details see http://hsewsf.sedsh.gov.uk/hslive/hsstart?P_HBNUM=21988 and http://canmore.rcahms.gov.uk/en/site/18468/details/duff+house+mausoleum+and+st+mary+s+well/ Generally speaking, I am in favour of trees, but there are cases where the removal of a few would be beneficial, and this is one of them. It is all but impossible to get a proper view of the mausoleum, and the trees are so close that there must be a risk of them damaging the building.

Invercauld House The House dates from the 13th century, and is the seat of Capt. A. Farquharson, chief of the Farquharson clan, of which my family name is a sept. The House lies next to the river Dee, near Braemar Castle and Balmoral Castle. The snow covered mountain in the background is Ben-a-Bhuird, taken from a loch near the House.

Terpersie Castle Terpersie is a very attractive small Z-plan castle, hidden away behind a farm in a side glen on the south side of the Correen Hills. It was restored from an almost complete ruin within the last 20 years or so. The last Gordon of Terpersie was "out" during the rebellion of 1745, and he hid in the Correen Hills above his house after the defeat at Culloden until eventually he was caught by the searching government troops. They did not at first realise who they had caught, thinking him just a vagrant, until he was brought down to Terpersie where his children on seeing him ran towards him with cries of "Daddy Daddy"!! He was taken to Carlisle and hung!

Beldorney Castle Best seen in winter when the leafless trees allow a view from the public road, Beldorney Castle is a Z-plan castle dating from the 16th century. In the 15th century Beldorney was granted to Sir James Ogilvy of Deskford, and in the 16th century it passed, possibly through marriage, to George Gordon, 1st of Beldorney. in the late 18th century it was sold to Sir William Grant, whose family retained it until 1919. There is a detailed article about Beldorney Castle at http://ads.ahds.ac.uk/catalogue/adsdata/PSAS_2002/pdf/vol_105/105_262_280.pdf

Inchdrewer Castle Inchdrewer Castle stands on high ground looking out over Banff to the North Sea. It is a fine house, now fallen on sad days. Like most Scottish castles, it has seen its share of incidents! Lord Banff was murdered here by his own servants (probably having earned it!), who in an attempt to hide their crime, torched the castle. It remained a ruin for a long time but has undergone some half-hearted restoration.

The cottage at Auchtavan. The cottage was recently the subject of a major restoration project. http://www.auchtavan.com
The cottage is of particular historical significance because it is considered to provide nationally important surviving evidence of the early traditional Scottish small house and it has of a number of rare architectural features. These include a cruckframed roof structure, with heather and thatch roofing under corrugated iron; rubble dry stone walls with some lime mortar, and a largely intact hanging lum (chimney) of vertical timber boarding over an open hearth. The cottage would originally have been divided into two; the left side was for the animals and the right side with the hanging lum was for the family. See also 1466978 1466981

The Old North Water Bridge The old road bridge here is now only open to pedestrians allowing access to houses across the river. Although on the map the border between Angus and Aberdeenshire is down the centre of the river, it seems to be Aberdeenshire council who carry out maintenance on the bridge.

Banff Bridge The elegant seven-arched bridge over the River Deveron is a Category 'A' listed building. It was designed by John Smeaton to replace an earlier bridge washed away in 1768. Originally built in 1779, it was widened in 1881 by engineer John Willett. It carries the main A98 and is always busy with traffic, as shown in this view.

Bridge of Alvah Because of the curve in the river, it is difficult to get a good view of the bridge from the right bank. It was built in 1771-3 for the Duke of Fife and incorporates a room for the toll collector within the structure. See http://canmore.rcahms.gov.uk/en/site/110833/details/bridge+of+alvah/ and http://hsewsf.sedsh.gov.uk/hslive/hsstart?P_HBNUM=2883 which are not entirely consistent with one another! The broken railings in the foreground are part of a walkway along the bank. I am not sure whether they have been in that state for a while, or whether they were damaged by this year's spate.

Balfluig Castle Built in the late 16th century, this was the seat of a branch of the Forbes clan which was the pricipal clan in the Howe of Alford, but was sold to a Farquharson in 1753. Local tradition apparently relates that at one time there was another castle near enough for the respective lairds to shoot at one another from their windows, until one laird killed the other, regretting the deed for the rest of his life.

Mortsafes in Cluny kirkyard. Mort-safes were devices designed to physically prevent anatomists and body snatchers from obtaining the corpse. These at Cluny date to the early 1800s and consist of a large granite slab with an iron cage. This was lowered over the coffin until the corpse rotted and was then removed for further use.
