Archaeological Evaluation (4 June 2014 - 7 June 2014)
An archaeological field evaluation carried out at the rear of 92 to 94 Academy Street in Inverness on behalf of Stuart Farrell for William Gray Construction Ltd. The archaeological investigations were carried out as part of a planning condition in advance of demolition on the site. Site work was carried out between 4 and 7 of June 2014. Overall 93.9 square metres of trench was excavated. All archaeological features identified contained artefacts consistent with a 19th or 20th century formation. No residual or in situ evidence was recovered for earlier activity on the site.

Standing Building Recording (May 2014 - 5 December 2014)
A programme of archaeological recording, evaluation, photographic survey and watching brief, prior to, during and after demolition works was conducted between May and December 2014 for 2 Listed B buildings in Academy Street, Inverness. (NMRS NH64NE 54 and 732)
The houses date from c.1830's and were quite plain internally, with few original features surviving due to the house being converted into small offices with remodelling in the 19th and 20th centuries. An evaluation and watching brief to the development site only revealed a few features of a mid 19th century date, or areas heavily disturbed by modern features.
Full Report submitted to Highland HER and NMRS.
