Buckie
Buckie is a burgh town (defined because of this in 1888) on the Moray Firth shore of Scotland. Historically in Banffshire, Buckie was the biggest community in the area by some hundreds of citizens before 1975, when the administrative area was abolished. The town is the 3rd largest in the Moray council area after Elgin as well as Forres and within the interpretations of data published by the General Register Office for Scotland was placed at number 75 in the list of population estimates for negotiations in Scotland mid-year 2006. Buckie lies virtually equidistant to Banff to the east and Elgin to the west with both communities being about 17 miles (27 kilometres) remote whilst Keith exists 12 mi (19 kilometres) to the south by road. Geographically, the community is, generally talking, laid out in a linear style, following the coast. There is a reduced shore location and also a top area. Fundamentally Buckie itself is the main part of the community existing between the Victoria Bridge under which moves the Buckie Burn at the western end of West Church Street, the eastern end of Cluny Harbour and above the shore location. To the west of Victoria Bridge as well as the Buckie Burn is Buckpool, which was previously known as Nether Buckie, and on the shoreline, west of Cluny Harbour, between Baron Street and also the Buckie Burn mouth, there is the Yardie. Immediately over the Yardie on the Buckie side of the burn is the Seatown. To the west of the Yardie is Harbourhead. To the east of Cluny Harbour lie Ianstown, Gordonsburgh and also Portessie also well-known in your area as The Sloch (traditionally The Rotten Slough), which gets to towards Strathlene. These areas were, to all intents and also purposes, different fishing settlements that gradually combined throughout time. A new community was outlined over the shoreline in the 19th century and also this is the rump of Buckie.
