The
Kinloss Abbey Trust was created in 2003 as the natural development
of the Kinloss Abbey Working Group put together in the summer
of 2002 by The Moray Council. The group was instigated by the
Findhorn & Kinloss Community Council to look at ways of raising
the public awareness to the existence of the Abbey and to look
at the general condition of the Abbey ruins and consider ways
to preserve the monument for posterity. |
