Eleven new homes have been completed at Kintail Terrace in Inverness.

The development consists of six one-bedroom flats, three five-person houses and two bungalows. They have been constructed on the site of the derelict Jolly Drover public house, while additional enhancements have been made to the approach of Kintail Terrace, the local community shop front and car parking.

Costing around £1.3m, the project was delivered by local contractor, Compass, and overseen by the Highland Council.

Councillor Graham MacKenzie, Chair of The Highland Council's Community Services, said: "The completion of 11 new council houses marks the first new council houses to be built in the area for many years. This development has regenerated a former derelict public house to offer much needed new homes which are built to a high standard, offering warm, low maintenance homes for all tenants."
