	North Kessock Feature Page on Undiscovered Scotland
		Inverness squeezed between the mouth of the Caledonian Canal to the west and the River Ness and Inverness Harbour to the east.
		On the North Kessock side, a village of some sort probably existed as long ago as 1437, when the Dominican monastery in Inverness was granted a charter to operate a ferry to the Black Isle.
		The Kessock Ferry was still using sail until 1907 when it converted to steam: and this in turn was later replaced by a small car ferry.
