In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Huna like this:
Houna or Huna, a hamlet in Canisbay parish, Caithness, adjacent to Houna Ness on the Pentland Firth, 3 miles W of Duncansbay Head, and 16½ N of Wick. It has a post office under Wick and an inn, and is the ferry station to Orkney.
Huna is now part of HIGHLAND Council. Click here for graphs and data of how HIGHLAND has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Huna itself, go to Statistics.
