Dunbeath
Dunbeath is a town in south-east Caithness, Scotland on the A9 road. It was the birth place of Neil M. Gunn (1891-1973), author of The Silver Darlings, Highland River etc., a lot of whose stories are embeded in Dunbeath and also its Strath. Dunbeath has an extremely rich historical landscape, the website of many Iron Age brochs and also a very early middle ages reclusive site (see Alex Morrison's archaeological survey, "Dunbeath: A Cultural Landscape".) Of Dunbeath's landscape, Gunn wrote: "These tiny straths, like the Strath of Dunbeath, have this intimate elegance. In boyhood we learn more about every square backyard of it. We incorporate it physically and also our memories hold it. Birches, hazel trees for nutting, pools with trout and also a sometimes visible salmon, river-flats with the wind on the bracken and disappearing rabbit scuts, a riches of wild blossom and tiny bird life, the soaring hawk, the unanticipated roe, the ancient graveyard, thoughts of the people that when lived far inland in straths and also hollows, the past and today kept in a minute of day-dream." ('My Bit of Britain', 1941.). There is an area museum/landscape interpretation centre at the old town college.
