Kenmore Pier

A postcard view of SS Lady of the Lake leaving Kenmore Pier. This steamer was introduced on Loch Tay in 1882, just a few years before the Killin Railway opened in 1886. The vessel was assembled at Kenmore having been manufactured by Anderson & Lyall of Govan. For most of her life she was operated by the Loch Tay Steamboat Company Ltd founded by the Earl of Breadalbane. From 1922 the concern was taken over by the Caledonian Railway. She continued operating until 1929 and was broken up at Kenmore. TSS Queen of the Lake continued on the loch until 1939 when the Second World War started.
