Turriff
Turriff is a town and civil parish in Aberdeenshire in Scotland. It is approximately 166 feet (51 m) above sea level, and has a population of 5,708.[1]
Turriff is known locally as Turra in the Doric dialect of Scots. The name appears to be Scottish Gaelic in origin, from "torr" meaning a mound or round hill, or "tur" meaning a tower.

Turriff has a primary school (Markethill Primary School) and a secondary school (Turriff Academy). People from the surrounding areas, including the villages of Cuminestown, Fyvie and King Edward attend the secondary school.

The main supermarket chains were Somerfield and Co-op and there are numerous specialist shops including two dispensing pharmacies. The Somerfield store was been bought by Tesco and was relaunched as a Tesco store in the summer of 2009. The town has a library, a sports centre and a swimming pool (currently under renovation).

History
The Knights Templar appear to have had a base in the area, and a nearby site is still known as "Temple Brae".
Early in 1639, the Marquis of Huntly assembled his forces here, and thereafter went to Kintore in lower Aberdeenshire, eventually marching from there to Aberdeen itself. The Marquis — being informed shortly after his arrival in Aberdeen that a meeting of Covenanters was to be held in Turriff on the fourteenth of February — resolved to disperse them, by occupying the town with 2000 men. The incident was known as the "First raid of Turray".
More recently, the 1913 Turra' Coo incident in the parish was the result of a local refusal to pay National Insurance when this was introduced by Lloyd George's government.
