Situation Walden occupies an elevated position, with views over the Firth of Clyde and beyond to the Isles of Bute and Arran.

Development first began in Kilcreggan in 1840 when the use of steamers on the Clyde made it more accessible. The first houses were used only as summerhouses, but as time went on, permanent occupation took place. As roads and vehicles developed, steamer traffic declined, and one by one, the piers closed. Today, Kilcreggan Pier remains the only traditional pier on the Clyde still in daily use. It has a rich architectural heritage of Victorian mansions and castles. floorplans
