Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Cats Castle The tall stone building on the left is called Cats Castle; it was built in 1888 in Scots Baronial style, and is a Category B listed building.

As for its unusual name, the book "North Clyde Estuary - An Illustrated Architectural Guide" (Frank Arneil Walker with Fiona Sinclair) gives an alliterative explanation: "where the old ferry house of Clydebank Farm sits out its retirement (its twin facing on the opposite bank), a Renfrew lawyer built Cats Castle in 1888, its handsome Scots Baronial façades festooned with feline forms".

The photograph was taken from the public footpath that follows the shoreline between Levengrove and Ardoch.
