Opening Lochranza Pier
Report and pictures by Derek Peters
Sunday 29 June 2003 was a glorious day – at least it was in Lochranza – not quite so nice at Mull of Kintyre I am told. The opening of the pier was marked by speeches from Harold Mills, chairman of Cal Mac, Ian MacLeod, chairman of Waverley Steam Navigation Co Ltd and the local councillor, Margie Currie, who cut the ribbon and unveiled the plaque. There was a large crowd – more got on than off, and the ceremony delayed the ship a little.
