About Nairn - Planning Applications & Local Development

Nairn is a town and former royal burgh located in the Highland Council area of Scotland, approximately 17 miles (27 km) east of Inverness. As an ancient fishing port and market town, it sits at the mouth of the River Nairn where it meets the Moray Firth, and it serves as the traditional county town of Nairnshire, making it a significant location for planning applications and developments in the region.

There are currently no active flood warnings for the Nairn area, indicating a relatively low flood risk at present. This is a positive factor for both existing residents and those considering property purchases or new developments.

In terms of safety, there were no crimes reported in the immediate area during the most recent reporting period (May 2026). This makes Nairn a particularly low-crime area, which is often reflected in its desirability and property values.
