Inverness Harbour
(Institute Civil Engineers Historic Engineering Works no. HEW 2534)
The harbour is located at the sheltered entrance to the Ness chiefly on the east bank of the river. Construction of the five-span Ness Viaduct for the Ross-shire Railway in 1862, for which Mitchell was the engineer, cut off the old harbour and resulted in Shore Street Quay being built downstream at the railway company’s expense.
In 1883 a new masonry quay was built at Shore Street in front of the old one.
