Description

Building recording was carried out at Falcon Square, Academy Street, Inverness by AOC Scotland in 1997 prior to the demolition of three warehouse buildings and site redevelopment. The work consisted of a limited desk-based assessment and the provision of a site/roof plan and measured external elevations at 1:100. A photographic record was also undertaken to accompany the elevations. An internal survey was also originally to have been carried out but the buildings were assessed as being structurally unsound and this was therefore excluded from the project. The report describes the nature of the materials and construction and indicates the relative phasing of the buildings. <1> <2>
