Moray Institute: From 1843 to 1859 the former site of the Independent Church was used as parochial offices and as a reading room. In 1888 a new building was gifted by the Earl of Moray and opened as the Moray Institute. It provided a library, reading room and ‘first class’ billiard table. The former Burgh Council met here between 1890 and 1922. Since then the Institute has been converted to housing.
