Every summer up to 5,000 visitors

Highland Council Local Plan For Halkirk (2002) |
It seems
possible that Halkirk may have first been started due to its proximity
to
Braal
Castle
which stands in
the woodlands on the west bank of the Thurso river. The name
Halkirk may be taken from the Norse Ha-kirk-ja meaning High Church.
