Title

The Saltoun Inn, Fraserburgh

Description

The Saltoun Inn has recently opened following the complete renovation of the building since the former Saltoun Arms Hotel closed in 2006.?The three storey category B listed property was built in 1801 by local mason Alexander Morrice and at that time had two parlours, a dining room, six bedrooms, a kitchen, large hall, a drawing room with offices and a garden and stable yard. It is thought that the building may have also incorporated some of the fabric of the former Town House of the Frasers of Philorth that stood on the site.

The building was originally built as part of the transformation of Saltoun Square (previously named Kirk Green) into a classical town centre. Originally called the?Saltoun Inn, it was funded by the Gardeners' Friendly Society of Fraserburgh, a gentlemen's club, for social and benevolent purposes.

Come and have a look at the impressive renovation of the building into the J D Wetherspoons pub and 6 bed hotel 'The Saltoun Inn'. Take a walk round the ground floor, which has a number of historic photographs and displays on Fraserburgh's history.

?

The pub will be open as usual on the day with refreshments available.
