Helmsdale Village.

Located on the east coast of Sutherland, this small village is primarily a fishing port and was planned in 1814 for resettlement purposes after the Highland Clearances took place.
The deeper history dates back to the late 1400s, before a once substantial castle and tower stood, and was scene to the murder of the then Earl of Sutherland!
It fell to ruin in the 1800s, and in the 1970s, the last remains of the tower were demolished to make way for the new bridge connecting the A9 road.
