Inverness, Cromwell's Fort NH 666 464 NH64NE 4

Only the NE bastion can now be seen of this pentagonal artillery-fort built by Cromwell in 1652-7 and slighted after the Restoration. The scheduled clock-tower which stands within the area of the fort (NH 664 463) appears to date from the late 18th century.
