The A9 runs north through Portgower, a small crofting and fishing village (although there has been no fishing here for several decades). Portgower was built in the nineteenth century as a clearance village (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duke_of_Sutherland#Clearances Wikipedia) by the Duke of Sutherland.
