Date 8/4/2015

Collection Papers of James Sloan Bone, landscape historian, Inverness, Highland, Scotland

Catalogue Number DP 343482

Category On-line Digital Images

Scope and Content The image shows part of the outskirts of 19th-C Inverness, with detached residences built along roads and the riverbank. Also seen is the Hilton Hospital and Poor House, built 1859-61 (white, detached building left of centre) with arched gateway shelter. By 2013 the main building had been converted into flats and renamed Old Edinburgh Court. The 20th-C saw modern residential development infilling most of the open space in the area covered by the photograph. Also seen are the Ness Islands in the River Ness, with the General's Well Bridge connecting with the Bught Park. The eponymous well is located to the SW. The original, 19th-C, bridge of this name was removed in the 1990s, and reconstructed in Whin Park at top right corner of image. Title and Scope & Content contributed by North of Scotland Archaeological Society (2021).
