They Were Forced Onto These Cliffs… The Tragic Story of Badbea | Highland Clearances

Step back in time with us as we visit the haunting remains of Badbea Clearance Village on Scotland’s rugged Caithness coast. In this video, we explore the powerful history of the Highland Clearances and the devastating impact they had on communities across the Highlands. While we cover the basic story of the Clearances, our focus is on the remarkable and often overlooked story of the people who were forced to settle at Badbea. Perched on steep cliffs above the North Sea, Badbea became home to families cleared from inland parts of Sutherland, pushed onto land that was harsh, windswept, and difficult to farm. With constant gales and poor soil, life here was incredibly challenging, yet the community fought to survive against the odds. Today, the ruins that remain tell the story of resilience, hardship, and one of the most powerful chapters in Scottish history. Join us as we walk through the remains of Badbea and uncover the story of the people who once lived on this unforgiving cliffside. 📍 Location Featured: • Badbea Clearance Village, Caithness, Scotland If you enjoy exploring hidden history and powerful places, don’t forget to like, subscribe, and follow our journey as we uncover more stories from Scotland and beyond.
