Portgordon history
By 1793 Buckie was the principal fishing community in the area. At that time fishing was confined to line fishing for cod, ling and haddock, in boats no larger than 14 tons. Development of the industry was limited by the lack of a proper harbour and disputes amongst the three owners of the various boats.
Portgordon harbour
Portgordon became the principal port in the area in 1797 . The original harbour of 1797 was constructed with wooden piers . Both fishing and the import/export trade thrived .
Churches

Roman Catholics in the area had first been using the clandestine church of St Ninian’s Church, Tynet . The United Free Church had a church at Enzie crossroads a mile to the south of village .
