Kinlochbervie can be found on the west coast of Sutherland on the north side of Loch Inchard close to Rhiconich. Originally crofting was an important employment in the area but in the 1940s Kinlochbervie grew as a fishing port. East coast fishing boats were forced by fish numbers to fish further west and many boats landed their catch at Kinlochbervie. Today the village is one of Scotland's main ports for landing fish. The oldest public building in the village is the 'Parliamentary' church built by Thomas Telford in 1829PLACENAME:KinlochbervieDISTRICT:Eddrachillis and DurnessOLD COUNTY/PARISH:SUTHERLAND: EddrachillisPERIOD:1950s; 1960sSOURCE:Willie MorrisonCOLLECTION:Willie Morrison ArchiveAsset ID:30546KEYWORDS:
