Old photograph of cottages on South Main Street in Kinloss located three miles from Findhorn, Moray, Scotland. Kinloss, Scottish Gaelic: Cinn Lois, a village in Moray. It is located near the shore of Findhorn Bay, around 3 miles from Findhorn and 2.5 miles from Forres. Northeast of the village is Kinloss Barracks, formerly RAF Kinloss which opened on 1 April 1939. It is believed that 1,000 aircraft were dismantled at Kinloss, after the end of the Second World War. The Cistercian Kinloss Abbey was created in 1150 by King David. Under abbot Robert Reid the abbey became a centre of academic excellence in the 1530s. It now lies almost completely ruined.
