Another new Highland distillery is being planned, this time near Alness.
A public drop-in session and meeting are being organised to gauge local reaction to the proposed development.
Channel Isles-based Ardross Investment Ltd wants to build a small distillery, warehouses, workers’ housing and “tasting lodge” at the site, at Ardross Mains, Ardross.
A pre planning application will go before members of Highland Council’s north planning committee today. (TUES)
Ardross Mains is a former settlement for farm workers.
The site comprises unused farm buildings and nine uninhabited farm workers’ cottages. It is mainly bounded by open fields.
The company proposes a public exhibition in Ardross later this month and a meeting with Ardross Community Council prior to a planning application being submitted.
