Gate of former lodge

Image: © Lairich Rig Taken: 3 Jun 2011

This gate stands at the south-western corner of the grounds of Image, near the junction of Rhu Road Lower and Cairndhu Avenue: see Image (the buildings shown there can be seen in the background of the present photograph). The gate seems out of place now, but there used to be a lodge beside it; that lodge is shown on early OS maps, and was presumably created at about the same time as Cairndhu House itself, but it is now long gone. At the time of writing, another of the lodges of Cairndhu House is still in existence, not far to the south-east.
