View of Boddam from Stirling Hill
The uniform grey buildings in the centre are associated with the former RAF Buchan
(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Buchan ) radar station, which closed in 2004. Behind them is the former Boddam parish kirk, now in residential use. In the far distance to the left is part of the Port of Peterhead. The A90 road passes in the foreground.
