| Administrative History | Inverness Scientific Society and Field Club was founded in 1875 to promote scientific study and investigation and to enquire into the Geology, Botany, Natural History and Archaeology of Inverness. The society became known simply as Inverness Field Club and this title was officially adopted in 1973.
