CASTLES
OF MORAYSHIRE
At present we haven't visited any
Castles in this County.
Morayshire
is the central of the three Moray Firth counties in
North East Scotland. It is hilly inland with a more gentle coastal
plain. This is whisky country and the River Spey (which it shares with
neighbouring Banffshire) is home to the largest concentration of
distilleries anywhere in the World. The county has an alternative name
of Elginshire, named after Elgin town. Other towns inclulde
Lossiemouth, Dufftown and Forres.
There is a steady scattering of castles across the county, including some of the most northerly motte castles in the UK.
