Old Photograph Rhu Scotland

Old photograph of the Post Office and houses in Rhu village on the east shore of the Gare Loch in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. The traditional spelling of its name was Row, but it was changed in the 1920s so that visitors would pronounce it correctly. Rhu is located North West of the town of Helensburgh on the Firth of Clyde, in the historic county of Argyle and Bute. Like many villages in the area, it became fashionable in the 19th century as a residence for wealthy Glasgow shipowners and merchants.
