Nigg Energy Park is the largest commercial site within 5km of Cromarty, alongside the Victoria Hall, Cromarty Cinema and The Old Brewery. We provide guarding, stewards and patrols for industrial and cultural sites alike.
Trusted Protection in Cromarty
Cromarty's named commercial sites are few but distinctive. Nigg Energy Park is an industrial operation where gate control, perimeter checks and contractor sign-in matter. Closer to home, the Victoria Hall, Cromarty Cinema, The Stables and the Cromarty Training Centre at The Old Brewery host performances and gatherings. That pairing, heavy industry on one side and small cultural venues on the other, decides which kinds of cover make sense.
Cromarty Business Profile
Highland has 11,105 registered businesses. Agriculture leads at 2,235, construction follows at 1,670 and hospitality at 1,395. Hospitality's 12.6% share is nearly double the 6.5% British level, so hotels, bars and venues often need door supervisors and evening cover. Farms, making up 20.1% of firms, are better served by rural mobile patrols and solar CCTV towers.
Cromarty work is staffed from our wider network of SIA-licensed officers, each vetted to BS 7858 and paid via PAYE. Guarding shifts, event stewarding and patrol visits are recorded with GPS book-on and digital reports, and our 24/7 control room monitors alarms and coordinates key holders for remote premises.
The Victoria Hall, Cromarty Cinema and The Stables are within 5km. If an event at any of them admits 200 or more, its organisers will face Martyn's Law duties when they start, and our stewards can help put proportionate measures in place. What Martyn's Law means for venues.

Security Requirements in Cromarty
Apart from the energy park and its cultural venues, Cromarty has little commercial footprint within 5km: one pub or bar, one mapped construction site and no rail station or retail park. Night-time footfall is light, so security is about protecting specific assets. Industrial yards need controlled access and patrols, venues need stewarding on event nights, and outlying farms and hospitality businesses benefit from alarm response and CCTV.

Crime & Security Data
Cromarty is in Scotland, where crime statistics come from Police Scotland rather than Police.uk.
Because of that, we cannot display the one-mile offence breakdown used on our English and Welsh town pages. The better starting point is a free on-site security audit, worth £250. We look at fences, gates, lighting, alarms, CCTV and how the site is used out of hours, then give recommendations using our 25-point risk checklist, whether you run a venue, a yard or a farm.
Local Policing
Cromarty is policed by Police Scotland, which sets local priorities and publishes its own crime data outside the Police.uk system.
