More about this scene
Until the early 19th century, Dunoon was little more than a modest village clustered around its castle. The popularity of the Clyde excursion steamers changed all that: Dunoon developed into a holiday resort, the largest and best known on the Cowal. Here, one steamer has just departed and two others are alongside. The one on the right appears to belong to the North British Railway. Dunoon handled 10,000 visits by steamers every year.
