Classics Corner
These three vehicles are parked in a garage area off School Brae, Avoch. None is currently in road-going order, though they all look very tidy. On the right is a 1972/73 Rover 2000SC, and on the left an 1988/89 Austin Metro City. Centre is a very rare Bedford CA Dormobile, dating from the early 1960's. All three vehicles are in good enough condition to be of historical interest, so I hope they are not allowed to deteriorate any further where they stand.

Avoch Parish Church
With apologies for the raindrop on the camera lens.
This church was built in 1870, replacing that of 1670, which
was itself, a successor to a medieval building. The previous two
churches, which were built in a North to South direction, were
destroyed by fire. The present church is built with its axis oriented in
an East to West direction and it has been suggested that the change
in direction may result in better fortune. (Extract from church website: http://www.avochchurch.co.uk/ )
