This photograph was taken from the side of Glasgow Road; the road and one of these gateposts can be seen in Image, which provides further context. As a comparison with that photograph makes clear, the course of the railway line at Dumbarton East Station can be seen in the background. As for the gateposts, the more distant one bears the inscription: "Children's park opened January 1914". The inscription on the nearer gatepost reads: "Gifted to the Burgh of Dumbarton by Dr J.Douglas White & Peter Denny". For the Denny family, see Image and Image As for Dr J. Douglas White, he was the nephew of James Campbell White, the first Lord Overtoun, who was, in turn, the son of the industrialist James White, for whom Image was built: see Image, on which all three of these individuals are commemorated, and Image For a view of the park, as seen from almost the same spot, see Image For another part of the park, see Image
