Culburnie, Highland


Culburnie is a scattered hamlet near in the Highland council area of Scotland. It is 1.2 miles west of Kiltarlity, and 12.4 miles west of Inverness.
The name may come from the Gaelic for "at the back of the damp place".
Until 1968 Culburnie had its own primary school, built sometime in the 19th century by the Free Church of Scotland. Primary pupils now travel to the nearby school at Tomnacross, while secondary students attend Charleston Academy in Inverness.
The Culburnie Burn passes through the area before flowing into the Bruiach Burn, which in turn joins the Beauly River and Firth.
