This entrance now seems strangely positioned, at one side of a narrow strip of woodland between two roads. However, before the main road (A814) was built, this can only have been an entrance to the south-western part of the grounds of Shandon House. At the time of submission, Shandon House itself is still standing: Image / Image The present picture was taken from the old shore road (see Image, taken from about the same spot).
