Findochty Harbour, Moray

“The White Mannie” looks over the harbour at Findochty (pronounced “Finnechty” by locals) out to sea, waiting for all the fishing boats to arrive safely home. The village on the Moray coast dates back to at least the 1400s thanks to its natural harbour, known as Crooked Haven. Across the harbour, the whitewashed church sits on a point looking out to sea. Locals would gather here in an emergency which, given the nature of the village, may mean a missing fishing boat or offshore shipwreck.
