Altre informazioni

The village of Badbea is situated on sloping land at the top of cliffs on the east coast of Caithness. It was built at the end of the eighteenth century to house families evicted from their homes in Langwell, Berriedale and Ousedale to make way for sheep farms. The village was eventually abandoned and the last resident left in 1911. Alexander Robert Sutherland, the son of a former inhabitant who had emigrated to New Zealand erected the monument in the photograph and it, together with the ruins of the village, are now preserved as a memorial to the Highland Clearances. The monument was made using the stones from the cottage of Sutherland's ancestor.
