	Historical perspective for Inverness (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
		The importance of Inverness, as the key of the Highlands, was fully recognised by Oliver Cromwell, and it accordingly became the locality of one of the four forts which he constructed for the purpose of overawing Scotland.
		In 1715 Inverness was occupied by the Macintoshes for the Jacobites, but the post was recovered by the exertions of the lairds of Culloden and Kilravock, aided by Lord Lovat, and the castle was then repaired as already noticed.
		For several centuries prior to the Union, Inverness was much frequented by foreign traders, and carried on a considerable commerce with continental ports, but much of this was in the first half of the 18th century diverted to Glasgow.

		When the Duke and Duchess of Kent came to Kensington Palace seven mouths after their marriage, the fact that a child of theirs might occupy the English throne was a possibility, but a remote one.
		Though the second of the children of the Duke of Clarence had died before Victoria was three years old, and thus her chance of the throne was greatly increased, she was not made aware of her prospects until much later.
		The singularly plain little bedroom near to the Nursery in the Palace is that which Princess Victoria occupied during all her happy childhood, and it was here that she was awakened to meet the Archbishop and Minister who brought her the news that her great inheritance had come upon her.
