The man credited with being the inventor of the world's first "hole-in-the-wall" cash dispenser has died, following a short illness.
John Shepherd-Barron, who was born in India, to Scottish parents, had been living in Portmahomack in Ross-shire.
He died at Inverness's Raigmore Hospital on Saturday, at the age of 84.
Mr Shepherd-Barron came up with the idea for a cash machine while in the bath. The first ATM machine was installed at a Barclays bank in London in 1967.
