Wheelie Bins
Serried ranks of the wheelie bins with which Moray Council, in its infinite wisdom, has seen fit to disfigure those parts of Moray where its predecessors have neglected to provide adequate storage for the garishly coloured invaders.

Anderson's Institution
Andrew Anderson (c 1747-1824) was brought up in Elgin. His mother, Marjorie Gilzean, was destitute after the death of her parents and of her husband, also Andrew Anderson. They were so poor that they lived in the ruins of the Cathedral, and it is said that Andrew's cradle was the font in the anteroon beside the chapter house. Young Andrew joined the Army and rose through the ranks to become a general. He left £70,000 to build the Elgin Institution for the Support of Old Age and Education of Youth, and this building, designed by Archibald Simpson, was built in 1830-1833. Initially the building provided a school for 50 resident children, plus accommodation for 10 old people. It is now a care home for elderly people. See http://www.andersonscarehome.co.uk/
