Old Photograph Passenger Bus To Coulport Scotland

Old photograph of a passenger bus going to Coulport in Garelochhead, Scotland. Originally in Dunbartonshire Garelochhead developed from the 1820s with the advent of steamer cruising during the Glasgow Fair holiday. Tourism was boosted with the opening of the West Highland Railway line to Fort William in 1894. Coulport is a village on the east side of Loch Long 5 miles north west of Cove on the Rosneath peninsula. It marks the end of the B833 shore road. Since the 1960s Coulport has been most associated with the Trident missile storage and the nearby Royal Naval Armaments Depot, RNAD Coulport, situated there as part of HMNB Clyde.
