Dounreay is a small settlement and the site of two large nuclear establishments on the north coast of Caithness in the Highland area of Scotland. It is on the A836 road nine miles west of Thurso.
The nuclear establishments were created in the 1950s. They were, the Nuclear Power Development Establishment for the development of civil fast breeder reactors, and the Vulcan Naval Reactor Test Establishment , a military submarine reactor testing facility. Both these no longer perform their original research functions and will be completely decommissioned, some of which has been in progress for a while. The two establishments have been a major element in the economy of Thurso and Caithness, but this will decrease with the progress of decommissioning.
