- Lossiemouth ("Lossie" locally) is a town in Moray, Scotland. Originally the port belonging to Elgin, it became an important and innovative fishing town. Although there has been over a 1,000 years of settlement in the area, the present day town was formed over the past 250 years and consists of four separate communities that eventually merged into one. From 1890 - 1975 it was a police burgh as Lossiemouth and Branderburgh. Stotfield, the first significant settlement (discounting Kinneddar which has now disappeared), lies to the north west of the town. Next was the Seatown - a small area between the river and the canal consisting of 52 houses, 51 of which are the historic fisher cottages. Following the decision to build a new harbour on the River Lossie, the 18th Century planned town of Lossiemouth built on on a grid system was established on the low ground below the Coulard Hill. Branderburgh formed the final development during the 19th Century. This part of the town developed entirely as a result of the new harbour with its two basins and eventually covered the entire Coulard Hill and providing the town's impressive profile when viewed from a distance. RAF Lossiemouth forms a significant part of the town; established in 1939 and houses three operational Tornado GR4 squadrons, and the Tornado GR4 Operational Conversion Unit as well as a flight of Westland Sea King search and rescue helicopters.
- Lossiemouth ist eine Stadt an der Küste im Bezirk Moray in Schottland mit etwa 6.720 Einwohnern (Schätzung 2004). Zum Zeitpunkt der Gründung war Lossiemouth noch eine eigenständige Gemeinde, heute wird sie vom Ort Elgin mitverwaltet. Da Lossiemouth an der Küste liegt, besitzt die Stadt einen eigenen Hafen und die Haupteinnahmequelle ist der Fischfang. Von wirtschaftlicher Bedeutung sind der nahe gelegene Flugstützpunkt der Royal Air Force und der Tourismus. Lossiemouth hat sowohl einen Folk- und Golfklub, als auch einen Segelklub.
- Lossiemouth is een plaats in het Schotse bestuurlijke gebied Moray en telt bijna 7000 inwoners. Vroeger was het de haven van het nabijgelegen Elgin. Lossiemouth bestaat uit de nederzettingen: Stotfield, Seatown, en Branderburgh. Ten westen van de stad ligt een van de grootste vliegbases van de Royal Air Force, RAF Lossiemouth. Die is tegenwoordig de voornaamste basis in Groot-Brittannië voor de Panavia Tornado, en huisvest drie squadrons van het type, plus de Operational Conversion Unit (OCU, omscholingseenheid) voor de Tornado GR4. Tevens zijn er twee Sea King helikopters gestationeerd voor search and rescue-opdrachten.
