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/

South College House
In its heyday the Cathedral, of which the towers can be seen in the background, was surrounded by the manses of the Cathedral officers and dignitaries. The names North and South College recall two of these. The actual building now on the site of South College is of a much later date, though parts of the 16th century building may lurk under the later walls.
