Littleferry

Littleferry (Scottish Gaelic: Am Port Beag) is a village on the north east shore of Loch Fleet in Golspie, Sutherland, and is in the Scottish council area of Highland. Littleferry lies at the entrance to Loch Fleet, 3 miles (5 km) southwest of Golspie. A ferry once crossed the narrow channel here. Littleferry was also the scene of a skirmish between a Jacobite force of the Earl of Cromartie and government troops under Ensign John Mackay of Golspie on the eve of the Battle of Culloden in 1746.[1]
