Petition updateAppeal to save Dumbarton LandmarkProtecting our Heritage
The Residents of Milton, Dumbarton
Apr 14, 2016
Tom Livingstone, one of our supporters, mentioned the painting 'The First Steamboat on the Clyde' by John Knox which hangs outside the tearoom at Pollock House. Glasgow Museums kindly gave us permission to use the image on our petition. Dumbuckhill features prominently in the painting, along with Dumbarton Rock in the distance, and the image is a fine example of what has already been lost to us due to development. This view was from the top of Dalnotter Hill and is now obscured by the Erskine Bridge. More details on this painting and others can be found on the Glasgow Museums collections website athttp://collections.glasgowmuseums.com/starobject.html?oid=835
