It flows into the Dornoch Firth and is fed by the rivers Oykel, Shin, River Cassley and Carron. The downstream extent[1] of the Kyle of Sutherland is the eponymous bridge at Bonar Bridge. The upstream end of 'the Kyle' as it is locally known, is the furthest inland extent of tidal water,[2] which corresponds to 'the bailey bridge', beyond Rosehall. The Kyle did separate Sutherland and Ross-shire for centuries until 1975[3][4][5] when the old Scottish counties were abolished. The counties of Sutherland and Ross became districts of the Highland Region, with altered boundaries. As a result of this, the Kyle became wholly part of Sutherland, though most locals continue to refer to the original boundaries. 1892 flooding{{Infobox flood| name = 1892 Flooding | date = {{Start date and age|1892|01|29}} | location = Bonar Bridge }} The first Bonar Bridge was built in 1812 after the Battle of Culloden References1. ^http://t2.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcR5AnN_kjx8qtKlByQbVpJhhQG0qyPpiAO2DWdDI4F4Di25oVznmw map of the lower Kyle of Sutherland {{Commons}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Kyle Of Sutherland}}{{Highland-geo-stub}}{{Scotland-river-stub}}2. ^http://www.trout-salmon-fishing.com/scotland-kyle-sutherland.htm Fishing website 3. ^Counties of Scotland#Reform Counties & reorganisation 4. ^Local government areas of Scotland 1973–96 Re-organisation to create Highland Region 5. ^http://p4modeller.wordpress.com/2-kyle-of-sutherland/ note of county boundary changes 1 : Rivers of Highland (council area) |
