Burghead

Burghead is a burgh in Moray, Scotland. The present town was begun in 1805 on the site of an important Pictish hill fort. A well in the burgh dates from this period, as do the Burghead Bull carvings.

On January 11th each year, a burning tar barrel known as the Clavie is carried through the town.
