Our tour today starts here, at the bottom of the Market Brae Steps. If you look around you, depending on the season of the year, it might be more or less busy. You are in the centre of Inverness, the capital of the Highlands with about 60.000 inhabitants.
You are now standing in front of the VisitScotland tourist information. While it might not have been this exact location, there would have been some kind of tourist information in 1945, when Frank and Claire travel to the capital of the Highlands in order to rediscover each other after having been apart serving their country in the Second World War.
The beautiful building in front of you is the Town House of Inverness. It was built in 1878 on the old marketplace and was opened in 1882 by Queen Victoria’s second son Alfred.
