Lairg

Lairg ((スコットランド・ゲール語:An Luirg), meaning "the shank/shin")〔(Gaelic and Norse in the Landscape: Placenames in Caithness and Sutherland ). Scottish National Heritage.〕 is a village and parish in Sutherland, Scotland. It has a population of about 900 and is at the south-eastern end of Loch Shin.
Lairg is unusual in the northern Highlands, if not unique, in being a large settlement that is not on the coast. One of the reasons that Lairg is slightly bigger than other non-coastal Highland villages is its central location within the county of Sutherland. Having four roads which meet in the village, it used to be known as "The Crossroads of the North". In the 19th century, it was provided with a railway station (at ), on what is now the Far North Line. This development means that the north west of Sutherland is now easier to access. (The Far North Line links Inverness in the south with Thurso and Wick in the north.)
== Sheep sales ==

Lairg is the location of the largest single-day sheep sale in Europe. These auctions take place in August and bring people from all over Scotland to buy or sell their animals.
