Summary[edit]

Description
English: Dumbarton Rock: Duke of Argyll's Battery [This is one of a linked series of articles about Dumbarton Rock. See the end of 1380091 for a list of the reference works that are cited here in abbreviated form.]

Belhouse (or Bellhouse) Battery formerly stood on this site; it was modified in about 1795 to take heavier guns, at which time it was given its present name [OSG07, p5; MacPhail, p134-5, 186].

The background of the image shows a view northwards along the length of the Vale of Leven; Ben Lomond (NN3602) is visible on the skyline, just to the right of the middle cannon. The tall brick-red structure on the left is the shell of the huge Ballantine's distillery (see https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1442360 ).
