style="text-align: center;">Treasures of Moray: What’s new with Moray Finds?</h2> <h3 style="text-align: center;">A talk by Dr George Prew, Treasure Trove Unit</h3> <p style="text-align: center;">This talk gives a quick overview of how the Treasure Trove system works, what the Treasure Trove Unit does, who they are, and some of the big changes to the unit over the last year, before showing and talking through particularly interesting cases of objects which have come through the process from Moray in the last few years.</p> <p style="text-align: center;">Dr George Prew is a Treasure Trove Officer focusing on Moray, Orkney, Shetland, and The Lothians. His research interests centre on dress and death, as brought out in his recently-concluded PhD thesis which analyses communities in Iron Age Italy through how they dressed their corpses. Within the Treasure Trove Unit, he has a particular interest in Late Medieval enamelled objects, heraldry, small lead finds, and shot.</p> <p style="text-align: center;">Adult tickets £4, Students £2, Moray Society members free.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong>All tickets (including free tickets) must be booked in advance via our online ticketing website</strong></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><strong><a href="https://elgin-museum.arttickets.org.uk/elgin-museum/treasures-of-moray-whats-new-with-moray-finds-667be8dc74673">BOOK NOW!</a></strong></p> <p>Tickets: <a class="ai1ec-ticket-url-exported" href="https://elgin-museum.arttickets.org.uk/elgin-museum/treasures-of-moray-whats-new-with-moray-finds-667be8dc74673">https://elgin-museum.arttickets.org.uk/elgin-museum/treasures-of-moray-whats-new-with-moray-finds-667be8dc74673</a>.</p>Europe/London2024-09-20T19:00:00Europe/London2024-09-20T20:30:00en-GBcurator@elginmuseum.org.ukElgin Museum @ 1 High Street, Elgin IV30 1EQ0https://elginmuseum.org.uk/event/evening-talk-treasures-of-moray-whats-new-with-moray-finds/externalADULTS £4.00, STUDENTS £2.00, MORAY SOCIETY MEMBERS FREEhttps://elgin-museum.arttickets.org.uk/elgin-museum/treasures-of-moray-whats-new-with-moray-finds-667be8dc74673ai1ec-3710@elginmuseum.org.uk/l2026-04-18T20:24:55ZEvening Talk: Scotland beneath the surface – exploring the natural and man-made heritage under our feet<h2 style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #003300;"><strong>Friday 27th September 2024 at 7 pm </strong></span></h2> <h2 style="text-align: center;">Scotland beneath the surface – exploring the natural and man-made heritage under our feet</h2> <h3 style="text-align: center;">A talk by L.

We’ll visit some abandoned sandstone quarries looking at the geology and discussing some controversies which confounded Victorian geologists 150 years ago.</p> <p>Meeting at the car park at Leggat Quarry, we’ll walk to Rosebrae and Cutties Hillock Quarries. This will involve a round walk of about 3 km which includes a gentle 0.5 km uphill walk to almost the top of Quarry Wood but following good paths.</p> <p>In Cutties Hillock Quarry around 150 years ago fossil reptiles were found only a few feet above rock layers where fossil fish scales occurred, were the rocks of the same age? This was a question which interested many Victorian geologists and drew scientists from all over the U.K to Quarry Wood. A clue can be found in Rosebrae Quarry where a gap in the geological record can be examined, a 100 million year geological time gap, a cranny where your finger can span 100 million years!</p> <p>Near to Cutties Hillock Quarry we can also see evidence from the last ice-age, grooves in small exposures of rocks created by the last ice sheets to cover Moray, glacial striae to those who remember school geography lessons!</p> <p><strong>NOTES:</strong></p> <ul> <li>Please wear appropriate footwear for walking on rough tracks / trails: stout boots are recommended, walking pole(s) if normally used</li> <li>Bracken growing in woodland areas so ticks may pose a risk, please dress appropriately: Layered clothing appropriate for variable weather conditions, waterproof outerwear, hat & gloves (or sun hat if appropriate)</li> <li>You may wish to bring: water, hand lens, binoculars, camera, whistle, sunscreen</li> <li>No dogs allowed</li> <li>Car parking charges apply: <a href="https://forestryandland.gov.scot/visit/quarry-wood">https://forestryandland.gov.scot/visit/quarry-wood</a></li> </ul> <p><strong>THIS EVENT HAS NOW SOLD OUT!</strong></p>Europe/London2025-06-15T13:00:00Europe/London2025-06-15T17:00:00en-GBQuarry Wood Leggat Car Park, IV30 8XT @ Quarry Wood Leggat Car Park, IV30 8XT0https://elginmuseum.org.uk/event/moray-walking-festival-geology-walk-in-quarry-wood/externalthumbnail;https://elginmuseum.org.uk/l/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Quarry-Wood-symbol-stone-scaled.jpg;317;226,medium;https://elginmuseum.org.uk/l/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Quarry-Wood-symbol-stone-scaled.jpg;317;226,large;https://elginmuseum.org.uk/l/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Quarry-Wood-symbol-stone-scaled.jpg;317;226,full;https://elginmuseum.org.uk/l/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Quarry-Wood-symbol-stone-scaled.jpg;317;226Full Price: £10 / Concessions: £5ai1ec-3831@elginmuseum.org.uk/l2026-04-18T20:24:55Z<h3 style="text-align: center;"><strong>SOLD OUT!</strong></h3> <h3><a href="https://elginmuseum.org.uk/event/moray-walking-festival-hopeman-fossil-dunes-and-trackways/elgin-museum-2-e1711385274820-1536x866-jpg/" rel="attachment wp-att-3833"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-3833" src="https://elginmuseum.org.uk/l/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Elgin-Museum-2-e1711385274820-1536x866.jpg.webp" alt="" width="524" height="295" srcset="https://elginmuseum.org.uk/l/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Elgin-Museum-2-e1711385274820-1536x866.jpg.webp 1536w, https://elginmuseum.org.uk/l/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Elgin-Museum-2-e1711385274820-1536x866.jpg-300x169.webp 300w, https://elginmuseum.org.uk/l/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Elgin-Museum-2-e1711385274820-1536x866.jpg-600x338.webp 600w, https://elginmuseum.org.uk/l/wp-content/uploads/2025/04/Elgin-Museum-2-e1711385274820-1536x866.jpg-768x433.webp 768w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 524px) 100vw, 524px" /></a></h3> <h3><span style="color: #003300;">Moray Walking Festival: Hopeman: Fossil dunes and trackways</span></h3> <p>Saturday 21st<sup> </sup>June 2025, 1000 – 1630</p> <p>**SOLD OUT**</p> <p>Join Elgin Museum Geology Group Volunteer Dave Longstaff on this full day event to examine features of the late Permian Hopeman Sandstone Formation, including fossilised dunes and animal trackways.</p> <p>Starting at the Hopeman beach huts, we will see relicts of aeolian barchan and possible star dunes before examining a stretch of coastline that shows small faults, a range of soft sediment deformation features, fluvial and lacustrine sandstones, abandoned millstones and quarries, trace fossils and other sedimentary features.</p> <p>After lunch in Cove Bay (NJ 1594 7011) around low tide of 14:49 we will look at a well-studied fault zone and post-glacial caves.
