A PLAQUE commemorating Highland author Neil Gunn, which disappeared more than four years ago, has finally been replaced.
Inverness provost Jimmy Gray joined local writer Katharine Stewart (94) yesterday for the unveiling at the former Customs House, now Optical Express, in Inverness.
The plaque disappeared from the exterior of the building in the High Street in April 2005. It had been erected by the then Inverness District Council to honour the author, who worked as an excise officer between 1921 and 1938.
