More about Inverness Scotland
Inverness lies at the north end of the Great Glen
where the River Ness flows into the Moray Firth. At the
beginning of the current millennium three towns were
granted City status and Inverness, the Capital of the
Highlands, became Scotland’s fifth City.
The origins of Inverness can be traced back as early as
the 400s when a Pictish fortress was built atop a crag
at Craig Phadrig, a wooded area on the western edge of
the current city. It is believed that the fortress was
destroyed by fire in the 700s. A later castle built in
Inverness was destroyed by Malcolm III in about 1070,
who then built another on a hill overlooking the River
Ness at the point where the ferry crossed.
The town of Inverness grew rapidly and by1250 a bridge
had been built across the river and a priory founded and
the seaport had become an important centre for fishing
and boat building. However all the progress that
Inverness had enjoyed came to a halt when in 1429 the
town was attacked by Lord of the Isles, Alexander, to
avenge his arrest in Inverness the previous year.
Inverness was largely destroyed.
The 1600s saw Inverness thriving once more and in 1652
Oliver Cromwell built a citadel to help consolidate his
hold on Northern Scotland, on the site of the old
medieval castle. When the monarchy had been restored the
citadel was abandoned but many of the English troops
decided to settle in Inverness. The citadel became Fort
George in 1727 housing 400 troops, but surrendered to
the Jacobites in early1746 when they took Inverness
before losing the Battle of Culloden a few months later.
The Jacobites mined the citadel but the mines exploded
prematurely completely destroying the structure.
The 1800s and the Caledonian Canal saw another period of
growth for Inverness and part of this was the beautiful
red stone Inverness castle built in 1830, and still
there today. Inverness was now established as the
Capital of the Highlands. By the 1870s the railways had
arrived linking Inverness to other towns and cities.
Today Inverness is thriving more than ever. Now
Scotland’s fifth city Inverness is one of the fastest
growing cities in the UK. Main roads from the South,
East and to the North via the kessock Bridge all meet at
Inverness. The River Ness still holds a focal point with
many attractions on its banks, like a theatre, castle,
cathedral and perhaps something more mysterious lurking
in its great depths. |
