"Refurbished in 2015, Thurso Library was built in 1862 as the Miller Institute and was later turned into the Thurso Library and Swanson Gallery and stands at the end of Sinclair land in Davidson’s Street. With its clock tower and pillared facade it makes for an imposing but welcoming building in Thurso." Source: https://www.highlifehighland.com/libraries/thurso-library

Sinclair, the eldest son of Sir John Sinclair, 1st Baronet of Ulbster, and Diana, only daughter of Alexander Macdonald, 1st Baron Macdonald, was born in Edinburgh. His siblings were John, William, and Catherine Sinclair. At ten, he entered Harrow School under Dr. Drury, where he studied with Lord Byron and Sir Robert Peel. Byron described Sinclair as "the prodigy of our school days. He made exercises for half the school (in the true sense of the word), verses at will, and subjects without them. He was a friend of mine, and as near to me." At sixteen, Sinclair left Harrow for Göttingen. He was arrested as a spy and brought before Napoleon, who interrogated him and ordered his release. In 1826, Sinclair published a privately printed account of the interview (Edinburgh, 1826, 8vo).

What a beautiful beach overlooking Scrabster. It's always special to walk along the seafront, watching and listening to the waves. Access to the beach was via a few steps at either end. On the day I visited, it was beautifully clean and the wind was blowing quite strongly. It's a truly superb location.

The River Thurso, which flows into the sea at one side of the beach, is a Site of Special Scientific Interest and the beach is popular with fossil hunters. This is Caithness' main town beach so the facilities, access and parking are all excellent. The beach itself is a mix of sand and rocks. The offshore reefs also make this a popular surfing location.

Dr. John Grant Smith was born in Lochside, Halkirk, but did not follow in his father's footsteps. He chose to become a doctor. He studied in Edinburgh and practiced medicine in Thurso for some forty-four years until his sudden death in 1898 at the age of 67. By then he had become a highly regarded physician and a recognized authority in the health sciences. Such was the respect among the people for this man that after his death the people of Thurso dedicated this monument to his memory and financed its costs by public subscription. (Caithness.org)
