Broubster is an inland hamlet, if that, in Caithness, on the minor road through the Flow Country between Loch Calder and Loch Shurrery. The cottages of Broubster are scattered along the lane and the Forss Water. There is a Broubster Village: it is the site of an abandoned village.
Near Broubster, there is a Bronze Age megalithic arrangement. Ten stones remain of an original set of approximately thirty-six. The arrangement is similar to a larger arrangement at Achavanich.
