Scope and Content This is a very general view of the Beauly Firth and Moray Firth, with the Kessock Bridge connecting Inverness to the Black Isle. On the left side of the picture is North Kessock and Charlestown. At North Kessock, a village of some sort probably existed as long ago as 1437, when a charter was granted to operate a ferry, but it grew in the C19 when Sir William Fettes built a pier for the ferry to Inverness. A ferry operated to South Kessock in Inverness till the Kessock Bridge opened in 1982. The last ferry – the ‘Rosehaugh’ – was moved to serve the Corran ferry near Fort William. Title and Scope & Content contributed by North of Scotland Archaeological Society (2021).
