MonicaL thank you  :)

In MacPhail's 'Royal Burgh of Dumbarton' he writes that Samuel Bennett's 'pet scheme for a pier at Dumbarton Castle, which was opened in 1874, proved a white elephant....much of the pier was washed away in 1897 and the last remnants were removed in the 1960's".

thanks

Hello, can anyone tell me the year the old pier at Dumbarton Castle was demolished. I have seen it on several photographs and I know there are posts visible in the water.

thank you
