Croick (Template:Lang-gd) is a small crofting village, located in the right bank of the River Halladale in Forsinard, eastern Sutherland, Scottish Highlands and is in the Scottish council area of Highland.

The church in the village was designed by Thomas Telford and built in 1827.[1] In 1845 families evicted from the Glencalvie estate camped in the churchyard.[2]
