Part of the Haggis Highway trail and part of a series of 7 events on the 7th July 2013
Thank you and happy caching from the Highland Haggi team.
A quick cache and dash.
The cache is not in the grounds of the abbey, there is no need to enter the grounds to bag the cache
What remains of Kinloss Abbey can be very confusing to the visitor. The main free-standing structure seen in the centre of the Abbey is the South Transept with associated Chapel, the Sacristy with the Prior's Chamber above.
To the south and west are two near complete cloister walls one containing the Lavatorium and archway into the Refectory. South of the Abbey (outside the cemetery) is the Abbot's House. This is unsafe and is fenced off but is the next target for conservation by Kinloss Abbey Trust.
At ground level it is possible to see the remains of most of the foundations or low walls of the Abbey including the south wall of the church, the north Transept and many of the columns within the Nave.
Information boards give guidance to the visitor.
