Old photograph of Elgin Cathedral, Moray, Scotland. The first church was erected on this site during the early part of the 13th century although, possibly as a result of a fire, this was extensively rebuilt and enlarged towards the end of that century. Severely damaged by the 'wolf of Badenoch' in 1390 when he burnt the cathedral, Elgin underwent a major period of reconstruction throughout the 15th and 16th centuries. It is one of the most beautiful ruins in Scotland.
