Old photograph of Clachnaharry, Inverness, Highlands, Scotland. The Caledonian Canal begins at Clachnaharry, connecting to the Beauly Firth via a sea lock. The Far North Line also passes through, crossing the canal on a swing bridge. Clachnaharry used to have a railway station. This station opened in 1869 on the Inverness and Ross-shire Railway, and was the first stop after leaving Inverness, but closed in 1913. A monument here commemorates the Battle of Clachnaharry between the Clan Munro and the Clan Chattan in 1454.
