Inverinate (Шаблон:Lang-gd) is a small linear village on the north shore of Loch Duich in Lochalsh, Scottish Highlands and is in the Scottish council area of Highland.[1]

History

A prominent family of tacksmen of Clan Macrae were based for several centuries at Inverinate. They were loyal followers of the Earls of Seaforth and included Chamberlains of Kintail, castellans of Eilean Donan, clergymen and poets (such as Donnchadh MacRath)[2] and Iain mac Mhurchaidh.[3]

The Killilan and Inverinate estate is owned by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, the ruler of Dubai. The Шаблон:Convert includes several large lodges.[4][5]

Facilities

Despite its small size, the community has a number of facilities. These include Loch Duich Primary School - which serves the primary school children who live around Loch Duich, including Inverinate, Morvich, Kintail and Ratagan.[6] Inverinate also hosts a petrol station - with access to petrol 24 hours a day; a Church of Scotland and a community centre. Within the community centre, both the Church of Scotland and Free Church of Scotland congregations meet weekly (the Church of Scotland, due to their church building needing remedial works).
