Inverness is a city in the Scottish Highlands. It is the
administrative centre for the Highland council area, and is regarded as the
capital of the Highlands of Scotland. Inverness lies near two important battle
sites: the 11th century battle of Blàr nam Fèinne against Norway which took
place on The Aird and the 18th century Battle of Culloden which took place on
Culloden Moor. It is the northernmost city in the United Kingdom and lies
within the Great Glen (Gleann Mòr) at its north-eastern extremity where the
River Ness enters the Moray Firth. At the latest, a settlement was established
by the 6th century
