Description

A comprehensive survey of Invergordon aimed at sites and buildings associated with and/or dating to the two World Wars was undertaken by members of ARCH Highland in 2015. This community project was designed to produce a record of heritage remains and resources in the Invergordon area, and to make this accessible to the community. A report was produced about the project and a database was provided of all of the sites visited and recorded throughout the project. <1> <2>
