Chambers Encyclopaedia Oliver and Boyd's Almanac Black's Map of Scotland Fullarton's Gazetteer Robertson's Map of Banffshire etc. 1822 New Statistical Account |
001 ; 002 | "A gulf in the extreme north- east of Scotland; a sea rather than a bay or an estuary; the largest projection, and at the same time one of the most regular which the ocean makes into the Scottish coasts. Its limits as assigned by the modern hydrography of the country are somewhat various, and not very distinctly understood; but in the whole, they distribute into five easily ascertained parts, an exterior and an interior. The exterior frith comprehends all the open sea south west of a line between Duncansby- head in Caithness-shire and Kinaird's-head in Aberdeenshire, onward to the entrance of the inner frith between Tarbetness in Ross-shire and Burgh-head in Morayshire" Fullartons Gazetteer |

Ordnance Survey - Banff county
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Banff, which is in the north east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
