Scope and Content Offices, Rose Street Foundry, Academy Street, Inverness, Inverness-shire This three-storey block was designed by local Inverness architects Ross and Macbeth, its vaguely ecclesiastical appearance not surprising in view of the number of churches they designed. The works was to the rear of this building. This view shows the building from the north east, with the narrow Rose Street to the left. Two of the three round heads of the window bays frame paintings of workers in the Foundry, which by the 1890s was also a structural engineering concern. The works by 1979 belonged to AI Welders, a successor company to the Rose Street Foundry, which specialised in building welding machines. They moved to a new works in the late 1980s, and these offices were by 2000 an Irish theme pub. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
