Buckie
Buckie is a burgh community (defined therefore in 1888) on the Moray Firth coastline of Scotland. Historically in Banffshire, Buckie was the largest community in the area by some hundreds of citizens before 1975, when the management area was abolished. The town is the third biggest in the Moray council area after Elgin and also Forres as well as within the interpretations of statistics published by the General Register Office for Scotland was placed at number 75 in the list of population estimates for settlements in Scotland mid-year 2006. Buckie exists virtually equidistant to Banff to the eastern and also Elgin to the west with both areas being roughly 17 miles (27 kilometres) distant whilst Keith lies 12 mi (19 kilometres) to the south by road. Geographically, the town is, broadly talking, laid out in a linear fashion, following the shoreline. There is a reduced coast area and also an upper area. Basically Buckie itself is the main part of the community lying in between the Victoria Bridge under which moves the Buckie Burn at the western end of West Church Street, the eastern end of Cluny Harbour as well as over the shore location. To the west of Victoria Bridge and also the Buckie Burn is Buckpool, which was formerly known as Nether Buckie, and also on the coastline, west of Cluny Harbour, between Baron Street and also the Buckie Burn mouth, there is the Yardie. Promptly over the Yardie on the Buckie side of the melt is the Seatown. To the west of the Yardie is Harbourhead. To the east of Cluny Harbour exist Ianstown, Gordonsburgh and also Portessie likewise well-known in your area as The Sloch (historically The Rotten Slough), which gets to in the direction of Strathlene. These communities were, to all intents and also objectives, separate fishing settlements that slowly merged throughout time. A brand-new town was laid out above the shoreline in the 19th century and this is the rump of Buckie.
