Inverness Cathedral (St Andrew's)
About
The cathedral on the west bank of the Ness, next to Eden Court, dedicated to St Andrew. Wikipedia notes that its spires look unfinished because the money ran out before they could be completed. The cathedral says its doors are open from 09:00 to 18:00, 365 days a year, with the shop open the same hours. Entry is £6 a head, with lower prices for teenagers and children and under-4s free, and donations can be made by card or cash. There is ramp access at the rear, an all-access toilet, and a loop system for services.
