"A gulf in the extreme north-east of Scotland; a sea rather than a bay or an estuary. Its limits as assigned by the modern hydrography of the country, are somewhat various and not very distinctly understood; but on the whole, they distribute into two easily ascertained parts, an exterior and an interior.
The extreme frith comprehends all the open sea south-west of a line between Duncansby-head in Caithness-shire and Kinnaird's-head in Aberdeenshire, onward to the entrance of the inner frith between Tarbetness in Ross-shire and Burgh-head in Morayshire. The interior Moray frith, where it opens from the exterior is about 16 miles wide.
The interior Moray frith, except in its outer skirts, presents quite a contrast to the exterior frith as to at once the wealth, the abundance, and the variety of its fisheries; and though possessing along its coasts some regular communities of fishermen, affords them such small employment that they generally resort to the fishing grounds north of Tarbetness."
