Peterhead North and Rattray

Peterhead North and Rattray is a coastal ward encompassing the northern suburbs of Peterhead and the adjacent settlement of Rattray. The area is defined by its working harbour, one of the largest in the UK, which supports a significant fishing industry and related marine commerce. The landscape features the broad curve of Peterhead Bay, with residential streets extending inland from the shoreline.

A notable local landmark is the ruined 13th-century St. Peter's Church near the harbour mouth. The land north of the town gives way to open agricultural fields and the coastline becomes more rugged, leading towards the headland of Buchan Ness. The ward's character is closely tied to maritime activity and the North Sea.
