The parish of Gamrie is in the Presbytery of Turriff and Synod of Aberdeen. Patron, the Crown. It is bounded on the east by the parish of Banff and a detached portion of the parish of King Edward; on the South by the parishes of Alvah and King Edward; on the east by the parish of Aberdour; and on the north by the Moray Firth.
The parish of Gamrie is in the county of Banff and contains about 17293 Statute acres; It has no detached portions in Any other parish, neither are there detached portions of any other parish within its limits. "The surface of the parish is exceedingly diversified by hills, glens and precipices. This appears to be occasioned by the Singular nature of the Sea-coast, which is skirted by a narrow ledge of Stupendous rocks, running the whole length of the parish |

parish, and of the eastern adjoining one of Aberdour, in Some places perpendicular towards the Sea to the height of 600 feet, and in all precipitous. **** From the bay of Gamrie alone of all the coast, except at the western extremity, before the high rocKs commence, the land rises gradually, that is, from the top of the braes, with more or less acclivity, for upwards of a mile into the interior. The most Singular appearance of all the other coast iS, that it is not the termination of higher lands from the interior, but that it Slopes down from the Sea towards the South, Sometimes immediately, but generally after a few furlongs of plain on the top, and forms glens parallel with the Shore, which are Scarcely less admired than the Shore itself, for their rich verdure, and picturesque scenery. **** Another circumstance that diversifies much the appearance of the parish is, that the Rocks on the Coast are not carried wholly in a continuous chain from end to end, but are broKen in upon with chasms or cross dens to their very bottomS, appearing as if the Rocks had been Rent Asunder by Some great convulsion. In the zigzag projections of the oppoSite Sides of these cross dens, each protruberance of the one corresponds with a liKe opening of the other. **** There are Some pretty and luxuriant belts of wood in the western extremity of the parish **** The chief plantation, however is the Tore of Troup, which, together with the woods of Troup House, measures upwards of 700 imperial acreS." New Statistical Account
The western part of the parish of Gamrie was erected A parish Quoad Sacra in 1866 under the name of Macduff. |

On referring the name "Sandy Currack" the Examiner Says that it is Correctly applied to the Small creek and the origin is supposed to have arisen from the fact of the fishermen having been in the habit of carrying sand in creels from this shore for the purpose of making mortar. "Currack" according to Jamieson is a Scotticism for a cart made of small twigs, which is supposed to be analogous to Creel in this instance. |

An ancient edifice said to have been erected A. D. 1004 and dedicated to St. John. The walls are all standing but about one third of it is unroofed, the remainder of the roof is in a very frail state, and will, very likely, soon fall to the ground.
"The greatest object of antiquity is the Old church, which universally - Received tradition Relates as having been built at the time of the landing of the Danes in 1004. The following account of the place and its tradition was furnished by the writer to the Aberdeen magazine, 1832, and is believed by the inhabitants to be substantially correct. That green conical mound that tops the east bank of the den, is the castle hill of Findon. It was garrisoned with a part of the Scotch army stationed here to watch the landing of the Danes; a party of whom effected a lodgement on the opposite bank, in the place where the Old Church now stands. The alarm was immediately given, and communicated by means of fires on the mounds, (several of which mounds yet remain on the highest eminences of this and the neighbouring parishes,) which communicated the intelligence Rapidly through the Kingdom, and quickly brought up Reinforcements. Still the Scottish chief (the Thane of Buchan) considered the issue of an attack Rather dubious, and, in order to add the enthusiasm of Religion to that of patriotism among his followers, made a solemn vow to St. John, in presence of the whole army, to build a church to him on the spot where the invaders were encamped, on condition that the Saint [continued on page 91] |

Saint would lend his assistance in dislodging them. The superstitious soldiers, thinking this too good an offer for any Saint to Reject, made themselves sure of St. John's co-operation, and entered with alacrity into the plans of their leader; who, being now sufficiently Reinforced, sent a detachment Round by the head of the den, and these, fetching a compass by the south - west, succeeded in gaining possession of the top of the hill, directly over the Danish main camp, and, by Rolling down large Stones upon the invaders, obliged them to abandon it, and to make their escape by the north-east brow of the hill which overhangs the sea, where many were killed in the flight; whence the place obtained the name of Ghaemrie, or the Running battle. After being dislodged from the east, the Danes formed a new camp, (where the entrenchment are still to be seen), which still preserved their communications with the sea, and also with an extensive barren plain on the top of the hill. Mean time the whole Scottish army, in the fulfilment of their leader's vow, set to work and built the church on the spot where the Danes first settled, while both parties were waiting additional Reinforcements. The Danes having been joined by a party of their country men who had landed at Old Haven of Cullen, about four miles westward, made a successful attack on the Scots, and drove them back to the castle hill; and, in spite to St. John for assisting their enemies, they polluted his sanctuary by maKing it a Stable for their horses. *** Three of the Sacrilegious chiefs were discovered amongst the Slain, by whose orders the church had been polluted; and I have seen their sKulls, grinning horrid and hollow, in the wall whence they had been fixed, inside the church, directly east of the pulpit, and where they have Remained in their prison-house 800 years! After the church became a neglected Ruin, about 12 years ago, these Relics of antiquity (sKulls) were pilfered bit by bit, by some of the numerous visitors to the place, one was subsequently Recovered and placed, for greater Security, in the Museum of Lit [Literature], Inst [Institute]. Banff, where it is still to be seen,) and nothing of them now Remain but the holes in the wall in which they were imbedded." New Statistical Account

The Danes having been joined by a party of their countrymen who had landed at Old haven of Cullen, about four miles westward, made a successful attack on the Scots, and drove them back to the castle hill; and, in spite to St John for assisting their enemies, they polluted his Sanctuary by maKing it a stable for their horses. By this time, however, the alarm had Spread far and wide; and the Scots, pouring in from all quarters, not only forced back the Danes to their old position on the brow of the hill, but, getting possession of the whole heights, and enclosing them on all sides except that overhanging the sea, they again commenced their murderous work of rolling down Stones, while the helpless Danes could neither oppose nor escape, and then rushing down upon them, sword in hand, the Scots cut them to pieces to a man. Thee Bleedy pots (Bloody pits) is Still the name of the place, which, being incapable of cultivation from its Steepness and exposure to the north blasts, remains to this day in Status quo. Besides the round, the crescent, and variously angled figures in the ground, the graves of the Danes are yet to be seen, sunk and hollow, among the rank brown heather, green at the bottom, and Surrounded at the borders with harebells and whortleberries, with fragments of rock and large detached Stones lying around, and covered with moss".

A large natural tunnel or underground passage on the coast formed by the action of the Waves. - During Storms from the north, the Spray issues from the east end of this Cavern, like Smoke from a Chimney.
"As might be supposed, amongst such gigantic masses of rocks, there are several caves along the Coast; and among others of inferior note, two in the neighbourhood of Troup deserve particular notice. The first is about fifty fathoms deep, 60 long, and 40 broad, from which there is a subterraneous passage to the sea, about 80 yards long, through which waves are driven with great violence in a northern storm, and occasion a smoke to ascend from the den. Hence it has got the name of Hell's Lum."
