The ’emergency’ early closure of the Victorian Market in Inverness on Saturday was because of a bird’s nest, it has actually emerged.
We reported that 2 eateries had actually flagged to consumers that the place would be closing faster than anticipated while Highland Council introduced an examination.
The place is normally open up to 8pm on Saturdays and the council’s Inverness city location supervisor David Haas worried the relocation was a precaution step.
One of the eateries, Sushi Inverness, specified: “Apologies however we’re closing recently for the remainder of the night. There is an emergency situation at the Victorian Market Inverness.”
Another of the businesses in the food zone, The Redshank, specified: “Unfortunately due to situations out of our control we have actually needed to shut early at the Victorian Market, Inverness. We are so sorry to dissatisfy anybody who had actually prepared a go to this night.”
This early morning, a council spokesperson said: “The council apologises to the public and the businesses within the Victorian Market for the necessary closure of the Victorian Market food hall for a short period on Saturday afternoon.
“This was due to the need to remove a bird’s nest in order to prevent interference with the operation of the Victorian Market food hall. We would like to thank everyone for their consideration and co-operation and are pleased to advise that the market reopened as usual on Sunday morning.”
She included: “The nest was within the roofing space and did include the elimination of nest product on the exterior of the roofing space.”
