It looks like it could be Cleuch

Wondering if it could now be Clyth on the coast north of Lybster. Near Blackness $:-\$

My guess would be Cleach.

Neither Cleuch nor Cleach are showing on Scotlands Places in Caithness

The extract is from a parish record of a marriage in Watten, I have checked national library of Scotland maps and Cleach or Cleuch don't show up

What date was the marriage?
