Lairg
Lairg is a town as well as church in Sutherland, Scotland. It has a population of 891 and is at the south-eastern end of Loch Shin. Lairg is unusual in the north Highlands, otherwise unique, in being a large settlement that is out the coastline. Among the factors that Lairg is somewhat bigger than various other non-coastal Highland villages is its central place within the area of Sutherland. Having four roads which fulfill in the village, it used to be called "The Crossroads of the North". In the 19th century, it was offered with a railway station, on what is now the Far North Line. This development suggests that the north-west of Sutherland is now less complicated to reach. (The Far North Line links Inverness in the south with Thurso and also Wick in the north.).
