Scope and Content The Market Arcade, Academy Street, Inverness, Highland Inverness expanded rapidly in the 19th century following construction of the Caledonian Canal (begun in 1804) and connection to the rail network (1855). Its main industries at that period were ship-building, iron founding and saw-milling. The Market Arcade (right) was built in 1869-70 by Matthews and Lawrie to create indoor retail-space on what was, during the 19th century, the town's main shopping street.
