Interesting facts about this location
Beauly Firth
The Beauly Firth is a firth in northern Scotland. It is effectively a continuation of the Moray Firth westward, and is bounded at one end by Beauly and at the other by Inverness. The Kessock Ferry has crossed at the eastern end since the 15th Century. Today, the A9 crosses on the Kessock Bridge. The Beauly Firth has several names in Scottish Gaelic including Linne Fharair, Poll an Ròid and Caolas Uisge a' Mhanachainn - the latter being a more literal version of the English.

South Kessock
South Kessock is an area of the city of Inverness in Scotland. It is to the north of Merkinch and is also known, somewhat disparagingly, as the Ferry. Prior to the construction of the Kessock Bridge, the Kessock Ferry sailed between North Kessock and here. South Kessock has featured in two novels by Alex Mabon: The Lads from the Ferry and War of the Ferry. It is traditionally viewed as a working class area.

Merkinch
Merkinch is an area of the city of Inverness in the Scottish Highlands. One of the Inverness's oldest areas, it is located in the north-west of the city, flanked by the Caledonian Canal to the west and the River Ness to the east. Originally, Merkinch was home to Inverness's shipbuilding industry and the Kessock Ferry sailed across the Moray Firth from a pier in South Kessock, to the north of Merkinch. Distilling was another important industry with a number of distilleries located in the area.
Located at 57.48 -4.24 (Lat./Long.); Less than 2 km away
River Ness
The River Ness is a river flowing from Loch Ness in Scotland, north to Inverness and the Moray Firth. On a hill above the river in Inverness stands Inverness Castle. The river is overlooked by the Eden Court Theatre, one of the largest theatres in Scotland. St. Andrews Cathedral also lies along the banks of the River Ness. Inverness draws many tourists and there are many large hotels along the river. There are several bridges in Inverness which cross the River Ness.
