Lodge Averon No. 866. The building has a fascinating history.. “The United Free Presbyterian Church stood at the corner of Union Street and Drummond Street, Inverness. It had been designed and built by the architect Alexander Ross in 1863/64. When the congregation of this Church moved to Ness Bank Church in 1901, the old Church was carefully demolished, the stones transported to Alness where they were rebuilt to form the building of Lodge Averon. The original site was taken over by the Royal Bank Scotland, with the Lodge building in Alness being completed by 1902/03". (Extract from http://www.lodgeaveron.co.uk/ )
