Ross and Sutherland Constabulary

The Ross and Sutherland Constabulary was a Police Force in Scotland that existed between 16 May 1963 and 16 May 1975.

Kenneth Ross, BL was the Chief Constable of the force for its entire existence.

On 11 March 1963 a special meeting of County Councillors at Brora unanimously agreed to merge the Sutherland and Ross-shire police forces.

On amalgamation, Mr Ross became an Assistant Chief Constable of the new Force with particular responsibility for Mountain Rescue matters.

The Force wore the Scottish Constabulary crest (Semper Vigilo) cap badge throughout its existence, and the force was identified by the chromed metal insignia R&S on rails worn on the epaulettes of Constables and Sergeants above the officer's collar number.
