Sorry, the information above is NOT correct. The view is looking east from the immediate vicinity of Dalintober quay. It is not looking toward Campbeltown.
The row of attached houses closest to the water is called St Clair Terrace and my cousin, Robert Gillies, lives there.
I was born in Gayfield Place 70 years ago. That is on the western outskirts of Dalintober. My maternal Grandfather, Duncan Martin, owned herring skiffs which were moored where you can see the anchored boats in the pc.
I can remember the poles on the extreme left of the pc. They were used for drying the nets. Thanks for the memories, though!
