SUMMARY:Forres: A Walk in the Middle Ages
DESCRIPTION:A walk with local history expert Dr John Barrett will trace the origins and development of the Royal Burgh of Forres in the present-day townscape.

We will find prehistoric and Pictish remains on the site of the medieval town. And we will find a place of power in the heart of Moray (not to mention Macbeth\, witches and several ‘orrible murders).

SUMMARY:Kinloss Abbey - Preservation in Action at the Abbey
DESCRIPTION:Come and walk around the continuing changes we’re making. \nThis year’s Abbey Walk will show the progress the charity has made during the year to stabilise the locked Abbot’s House\, as part of a ‘walk and talk stroll’ around the whole site. There is a stepped 3-foot wall over which those with disabilities can be easily helped. Tours cover almost 1000 years of history\, from the Abbey’s Foundation as a monastery in 1150 by David I to its rise in prominence under the remarkable Bishop Robert Reid just before its decline after the Scottish Reformation in 1560\, aided by Oliver Cromwell. The interesting memento mori graveyard and its Commonwealth War Commission graves are included. \nKinloss Abbey is a Cistercian abbey at Kinloss in the county of Moray\, Scotland. The abbey was founded in 1150 by King David I and was first colonised by monks from Melrose Abbey. It received its Papal Bull from Pope Alexander III in 1174. Robert Reid was its nationally famous abbot in the 16th century just before the Scottish Reformation.​
