The Lion's Gate
This structure stands alone, and bears the inscription "Vale of Leven Industrial Estate"; it stands beside one of the roads leading into that estate (also known as Strathleven Industrial Estate).
The gate used to be flanked by two stone lions, but these were taken away in the 1960s. The much more recent Lionsgate Roundabout can also be seen in the photo, and its name refers to the stone lions. Before the Vale of Leven Industrial Estate was created, and when the area that it now occupies was simply the estate of Image, a lodge associated with that house stood here, close to the Lion's Gate.
King Robert the Bruce was said to have kept a pet lion somewhere in the vicinity of modern-day Strathleven (which is very close to this spot). The lion was taken to Scone for Robert's coronation; it is mentioned in the exchequer rolls (financial records) for that occasion.
