Full Description
A WWII Nissen Hut on Seabank Road, Invergordon.
The building was investigated in 2015 as part of the ARCH project 'Invergordon in World War I'. During WWI this area was used for dockyard accommodation, for the J block hutment. These buildings were removed after WWI, and sometime between then and WWII a large building with Belfast Truss roof (Canmore 348408) was erected, together with a number of nissen huts were to the north and south. Most were oriented northwest-southeast, but this one is northeast-southwest, and is the largest of the huts. The large building is currently a sign shop and garage. Only a small number of the nissen huts survive, including this one. <1>
