Cullicudden, a hamlet and an ancient parish in Resolis parish, Ross-shire- The hamlet lies on the SE shore of Cromarty Firth, 4½ miles WSW of Invergordon, and 25½ N of Inverness; at it are a public school and a post office, with money order and savings' bank departments. The parish, united to Kirkmichael subsequent to 1688, now forms the western district of Resolis. A fragment of its church is still standing. A quarry of sandstone suited for many kinds of public buildings, and varying in colour from red to deep yellow, has long been worked in the vicinity of the hamlet.
