Mosstodloch

Mosstodloch (Scottish Gaelic: Mos Tudlach) is a small village in Moray, Scotland, lying near the A96 between Fochabers and Elgin on the west bank of the River Spey.

Mosstodloch experiences a unique micro weather system influenced by its proximity to a significant water body.

The convergence of various air masses in the region, coupled with the thermal inertia of the water, leads to dynamic atmospheric conditions.

The town's localized climate is shaped by the interaction of these factors, contributing to diverse and abrupt weather events.

The project was significantly delayed due to conflict regarding the proposed route, and discovery of a Neolithic settlement on the site of the bypass, at Coul Brae, Mosstodloch.
