Cove is a village in Argyll and Bute, Scotland. It is on the south-west of the Rosneath peninsula, on the east shore of Loch Long. Historically in Dunbartonshire, before the local government reorganisation in Scotland in 1975 it formed part of the small Joint Burgh of Cove and Kilcreggan. It remained in Dumbarton District until 1996 when it was transferred to Argyll and Bute with the rest of the peninsula. In common with many villages in the area, it was home to wealthy Glasgow merchants and shipowners in the 19th and early 20th centuries. Several of the large houses have either been converted or have gone. Survivors include over a dozen houses by Alexander "Greek" Thomson: ''Craigrownie Castle'', ''Glen Eden'', ''Craig Ailey'', ''Ferndean'' and ''Seymour Lodge'', all dating from the 1850s. Of those not by Thomson, ''Hartfield'' was the summer residence of Lord Inverclyde became a YMCA hostel before its dereliction and demolition in the 1960s by Fraser Hamilton of Knockderry Farm. Craigrownie Parish Church of Scotland serves the communities of Ardpeaton, Cove and Kilcreggan. ==External links== *(Craig Ailey Villa, Cove, Firth of Clyde ) *(The Gareloch and Rosneath Peninsula ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Cove, Argyll」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
