Salt panning returns to Highland village after 200 years

Harvested from the sea and produced using coal mined from the small pocket of Jurassic rock, Brora’s ‘white gold’ salt was a prized commodity which told its own story of Highland history. First produced in 1598 in a remarkable example of female enterprise, the northeast village’s sea salt industry told its own story of Highland history, encompassing Jacobite rebellion and Highland clearances. At its peak, Brora – five miles north of Golspie - was one of the nation’s leading and most northern producers of salt, with demand coming from as far afield as Denmark and London. While the rich seams of highly combustible Jurassic coal fired the Sutherland village’s woollen mills, distilleries and brickworks, and even helped it become one of the first Highland towns to boast electric street lighting – earning Brora the nickname ‘Electric City’.
