Rogart (Sgìre Raoird) Railway Station
Rogart is a crofting village of around 100 sq miles. The landscape is dominated by small crofting townships, with the centre of the village only being established by the arrival of the railway in 1868, running the length of Strathfleet from Lairg to the sea. It still has a shop, garage, blacksmith’s, school and churches. There is a monument to the first Canadian Prime Minister whose family were from here. There are a number of archaeological sites of interest, including cairns and brochs. Rogart is also known for the wild goats you will see along the A836 from Morvich to West Kinnauld.
