CULLEN, a royal burgh of Scotland, in the county of Banff. It is situated on a commanding eminence which overlooks the sea, and possesses a harbour, which, however, is of little use. The manufacture and bleaching of linen goods are now carried on with considerable success, and dried fish are exported to some extent. There is an annual fair held here on the last Tuesday of September. In 1821 the population of the burgh and parish amounted to 1452, and in 1831 to 1593.
