Old Photographs Tighnabruaich Cowal Peninsula Scotland
Tour Scotland wee video of old photographs of Tighnabruaich, Scottish Gaelic: Taigh na Bruaich, a village on the Cowal peninsula, on the western arm of the Kyles of Bute in Argyll and Bute. A pier was possibly built in the 1830s by the Castle Steamship Company, a forerunner of MacBrayne. Its was a stopping place for paddle steamers and Clyde puffers. The wooden pier was rebuilt in 1885 by the Tighnabruaich Estate who owned it from 1840 until 1950. George Olding owned it until 1965 when it became the responsibility of the local council. Passenger services on and around the Clyde were developed after the PS Comet was introduced into service in 1812 and tourism developed with the introduction of cruises through the Kyles around Bute, to Arran and along Loch Fyne. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
