Location
East Sutherland DMG lies inland from the east coast between Golspie and Helmsdale.The broad boundaries of the area are:
– in the east: the A9/ coastline running from Helmsdale to just south of Golspie
– in the south: the A839 from the A9 to Lairg
– in the west: the A836 running north from Lairg to Altnaharra,
– in the north:, the B873 Strathnaver road running up to Syre, followed by the B871 to the Strath of Kildonan and then southwards back to Helmsdale again
Other than these villages around the periphery, there are few settlements or public roads within the DMG itself other than in the south east corner.
