Badenoch and Strathspey
The district was abolished in 1996 when Highland was made a single-tier council area.[2] The new district was named after Strathspey, the valley of the River Spey, and the historic province of Badenoch.[3] The Highland Council has a number of area committees for debating local matters.In 2016 Highland Council renovated and extended Kingussie Courthouse to become its main offices in the town, closing the former offices at Kingussie railway station and another council building at 100 High Street.[11] The Highland Council's Badenoch and Strathspey area committee meets at both Kingussie Courthouse and Grantown-on-Spey Town House.
