Former tollhouse
Surveyed by the Milestone Society. This building is on the A97 eastwards out of Huntly at the junction with Old Toll Road east of the railway station. It is now called Rose Cottage. There are windows on the far side of the protruding front so good views up and down the road.

Quarry in Battlehill
This looks to me very like a disused quarry, which presumably exploited the igneous intrusive gabbro and norite formed here by intrusions of silica-poor magma approximately 444 to 488 million years ago in the Ordovician Period.
However the information board says it is an events area. I hope they can manage to drain it if they plan to hold events in it!

Former goods shed at Huntly station
A rare survival from the days when nearly every country station had its good sidings and shed. See also Image Its present use is unclear. The portable buildings in the foreground were associated with the upgrade of the railway between Inverness and Aberdeen.

Railway Station
I had had it in mind for some time to attempt to duplicate Image], taken 18 years earlier, and today was when I finally remembered to do something about it. The buildings on the left have gone altogether, and the one on the right has been replaced by a modern one. The sheds in the distance look much the same, but scrubby vegetation is beginning to grow up in front of them.
