Lentran is a small hamlet in the Highland council area of Scotland. It is 1.8 miles (3 km) east of Kirkhill and 5 miles (8 km) west of Inverness, on the south shore of the Beauly Firth. The area was served by Lentran railway station as part of the Inverness and Ross-shire Railway, which opened in 1862. However, the station closed to passengers in 1960 and goods in 1964. In the past, Lentran was part of a much larger area of land known as Drumchardine (now situated just south of Inchmore). In the late 17th century however, the lands making up the hamlet were bought by John Mackenzie of Clan MacFarlane. They were then sold to a Mr. Warrand in 1787, and until 1812 the estate was known as "Warrandfield". It was then bought by Major Thomas Fraser of Clan Fraser, and restored to its former name. The name Lentran is of uncertain origin; some theories suggest it was previously called "Lanthon", though this is disputed. In July 1963, Lentran saw a flock of 153 Canada geese land on its shores, following a few, much smaller incidents in Yorkshire the year before. This was the first evidence of moult-migration for the bird within the British Isles. (en)
Lentran is een dorp op de zuidelijke oever van de ongeveer 10 kilometer ten westen van Inverness in de Schotse lieutenancy in het raadsgebied Highland. (nl)
