Kinbrace is a small village in Sutherland in the Highland council area of Scotland. It lies at the junction of the A897 and B871[1] and is 17 miles (27 km) from Helmsdale by road.[2] The village has a station on the Far North Line (also named Kinbrace), and a primary school.[3] Few people live in the village with the population standing at 828,[4][5] although this statistic covers a much larger area than Kinbrace itself.
