Dornoch


 

Dornoch{{mn|afgh|1}} is a royal burgh and seaside resort in Sutherland on the east coast of the Scottish Highlands, and the north shore of the Dornoch Firth.

Parliamentary burgh

From 1708 to 1918 Dornoch was a parliamentary burgh, combined with Dingwall, Kirkwall, Tain and Wick in the Northern Burghs constituency of the House of Commons of the Parliament of the United Kingdom. Cromarty was added to the list in 1832. Known also as Wick Burghs, the constituency was represented by one Member of Parliament. In 1918 the constituency was abolished and the Dornoch component was merged into the then new constituency of Caithness and Sutherland.
