Turriff Meet
The town of Turriff is notable for a number of things including the Turra Coo (http://www.turriffanddistrict.com/index.php?topicid=4 and scroll down); a chemist's shop more famed for selling recordings of Scottish music than for aspirins, toothpaste and the like; and the red sandstone walls of the buildings in its town centre. You will find it difficult to appreciate the finer points of this example of the latter because it is partly obscured by the participants in the first Geograph meet in Scotland - from left, Barbara Hawgood, David Hawgood and Anne Burgess. (I'm not that tall - I was standing on a higher step than the others!)

Salt Mountain
Sometimes one can't help feeling sorry for the roads department. One year they are criticised for failing to salt or grit or clear the roads, and the next they stockpile more salt and grit, only to find much of it left over, lying open to being dissolved by rain before it can be used, and are criticised for buying too much.

St Ninian and Forglen kirk, Turriff
Built 1795 to replace St Congan's kirk about 300 metres south and modified and extended over the years. The fine bellcote from 1875 pays tribute to its predecessor at St Congan's. B-listed (LB42162): http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB42162 .
