Kames Pier

Although the transport of materials around the Kames Gunpowder Works was handled by the internal horse drawn tramway the finished products were taken by road to Kames Pier on the eastern Kyle of Bute for shipping. Two piers were built here with a saltpetre works in between. The piers are now in private ownership, seen here from the Kames to Tighnabruaich road on the evening of 5th April 2018.
