NH 66504 45613 An evaluation was conducted in August 2005 to the N side of Academy Street in an area formerly part of Manse Close, which possibly belonged to the Grey Friars in the medieval period. Four machine-cut trenches revealed no archaeological deposits or features of interest; the site was heavily disturbed in the 19th century.
Full report lodged with Highland SMR and NMRS.

NH 665 455 An evaluation was undertaken in November 2005, supplementary to an earlier evaluation which had not achieved a 10% sample. The only significant archaeological find was a substantial sandstone circular well, 1.5m diameter and at least 3m deep. This is almost certainly post-medieval.
