Dunbeath Heritage Centre Review
The moors of Caithness roll down to the sea at Dunbeath, where you find the Dunbeath Heritage Centre in a former school. Inside are photographs and domestic and crofting artifacts that relay the area's history from the Bronze Age to the oil age. It's particularly helpful to those researching family histories.
