Cormorants on the slipway of the Old Erskine Ferry, Renfrewshire.
Looking downstream along the River Clyde to the Erskine Bridge, the Firth of Clyde and the Argyll hills.
Ferrydyke Bascule Bridge. This bascule bridge, crossing the Forth and Clyde Canal, is shown from the other side at 939735. On its far side, a cycle route runs alongside the canal. The ruined building standing on the left was the bridgekeeper's cottage; see 1524165. Note also the low wall that runs alongside the cycle route on the right. From that wall, some sunken ruins can be seen on the other side; these are the remains of old stables: see 1524161. Between the ruined cottage and the stable wall, a path leads from the cycle route towards the former site of Donald's Quay, where a beacon still stands: 1493744. For a good summary of the history of this immediate area, see 961147.
View from Erskine Bridge Looking south-east and taken from through the coach window, travelling at moderate speed.
