Pringle Court
Despite its vaguely ecclesiastical look, this was originally Buckie Public School. It was built by Rathven School Board after the 1872 Education (Scotland) Act made education from the age of 5 to 13 compulsory and free. Over the next century the school expanded to take in older children and pupils from surrounding areas, then contracted as it was replaced by new buildings, leaving only a few subjects still being taught in the old one. In 1983 it finally became surplus to edcuational requirements and has been converted into flats.

Gospel Hall
I am told that this Gospel Hall is Brethren. (Open Brethren not the Exclusive or Close Brethren). Brethren do not self-identify as a denomination which is why they would not use a label of themselves.
I have note been able to find out when it was built, or by whom.
It is on the north side of West Church Street. See http://www.scottishchurches.org.uk/sites/site/id/3106/name/Gospel+Hall%2C+Buckie+Buckie+Grampian
