Plaque Dedicated to Andrew Removed From Inverness Town House
The plaque was removed amid ongoing investigations and title stripping of Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, with councils following national guidance on commemorative markers.
- Wednesday's removal saw the plaque from Inverness Town House, dated to Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's 2018 visit, placed into storage, Highland Council said.
- After the King announced last October he would strip his brother Andrew of his titles, Andrew was arrested last week on suspicion of misconduct in public office and released after 11 hours; he denies wrongdoing.
- Local councils reported they are checking records: Dumfries and Galloway Council knows of a plaque at Castle Douglas Primary School with no removal decision, while Clackmannanshire Council plans a motion on a paving stone in Alloa.
- A Dumfries and Galloway Council spokesperson said they will monitor the situation and follow national guidance while records checks are ongoing.
- Some local councils are considering removals, as Highland Council's plaque removal follows ongoing reviews of local commemorative markers like the Alloa paving stone.
