Maps in a War Office file (The National Archives WO 78/5182) show an anti-submarine boom between Cloch Point (where mooring blocks for the boom survive) and Dunoon in both First and Second World Wars. The maps suggest that the Dunoon end of the boom was attached on the shore below Castle Hill. In the First World War the ‘gate’ into the upper Clyde was nearer the Dunoon bank.
