Blackhill Drive, Helensburgh
Blackhill Drive is one of the outlying parts of Helensburgh; as the map shows, the Glennan Burn flows just to its west. The name Blackhill has, in modern times, been associated with the upper parts of Helensburgh, and the area just above it: see, for example, Image and Image The item Image has further comments about the Black Hill. In the present picture, the turning for Glen Drive is not far ahead, on the right. For a view from further ahead, near the end of this road, see Image

The view is from further along the street that is shown in Image; see that item for further comments. In the present picture, the turning on the right is for Kennedy Drive. Blackhill Drive itself comes to an end here; although there are no houses directly ahead, the way is blocked, so that there is no access to the moor.

Upper Colquhoun Street, Helensburgh
The building to the right is the White House. Though overshadowed by the Hill House (Image), which is behind the photographer's position, the White House has much to commend it. It was built for Henry S Paul, a director of Matthew Paul & Co.; he seems to have been better known locally as Harry S Paul. I believe he was the son of the Andrew Paul who is mentioned at Image, and therefore the grandson of the Matthew Paul who is described at Image The house dates from the 1890s; the architect was Mackay Hugh Baillie Scott. A detailed description can be found in the building's listing text.
