Gourock-Dunoon Ferry Service: Feasibility Study of a Future Passenger and Vehicle Service with the Vehicle Portion Being Non-Subsidised
PROJECT Gourock-Dunoon Ferry Service: Feasibility Study of a Future Passenger and Vehicle Service with the Vehicle Portion being non-Subsidised Funding: National (United Kingdom) Duration: Nov 2012 - Jul 2013 Status: Complete with results Background & policy context: Until July 2011, Cowal Ferries operated a passenger and vehicle ferry service across the Firth of Clyde between Gourock and Dunoon town centres. Since then, the Argyll Ferries town centre service has carried foot-passengers only, the service being provided by two passenger ferries. The Gourock-Dunoon route is the busiest ferry crossing in Scotland and the two existing ferry services (Argyll Ferries and Western Ferries’ passenger and vehicle service) provide a key link between Cowal / Dunoon and the central belt. Objectives: In November 2012 MVA Consultancy, together with The Maritime Group (International) Limited, were commissioned by Transport Scotland to carry out a feasibility study on future ferry services between Dunoon and Gourock town centres. The overarching aim of the study was to determine the feasibility of a service with the vehicle-carrying portion of the service operating without subsidy and the passenger- carrying portion being subsidised in a manner compatible with EU law. Other funding sources: Transport Scotland Organisation: Transport Scotland Key Results: There are a range of key potential 'upside' aspects (eg lower vessel GT, pier & berthing dues reduced through negotiation, Western Ferries retrenchment) and 'downside' aspects (eg higher GT, higher crewing levels and competitive response from Western Ferries) which could affect the service and the balance of these would be crucial in determining the ultimate feasibility of the town centre passenger and vehicle service.

Copper Mines of Renfrewshire Brian S Skillen
RLHF Journal Vol.8 (1997) 4. The Copper Mines of Renfrewshire Brian S Skillen This article presents an assessment of the 18th and 19th century copper workings in Renfrewshire. The Gourock Copper Mines Two trial mines were established on copper ore (malachite) present in pockets of calciferous sandstone, in the immediate neighbourhood of Gourock. The copper ore running between Lang Craig and Kempock was found by chance during trials for coal on the estate of Sir John Stewart, in 1767. A trial was made of copper ore and some 711.2 Kg were dug, which when processed gave 425.25 Kg of copper. The trial was not so successful as to encourage further ore working. The pursuit of coal was seen as more worthwhile as even though Gourock lay on coal export routes, the cost of local fuel was high.(1) The tendency to dismiss the find is shown further in the writings of John Williams, who afforded the copper workings barely a mention in his book, “The Natural History of the Mineral Kingdom”, published in 1810.(2) The Gourock Copper Mining Company The Gourock copper ore hinted at potential for non-ferrous metal work and, uniquely, it was relatively close to coalfields which eased the cost of transport for smelting. Thus in the mid 19th century copper boom in Renfrewshire, Gourock once more attracted attention. The formation of the Gourock Copper Mining Company was mainly the work of share dealers keen to use the boom to personal advantage. The principal agent for the company was Thomas Molyneux, a well known local share dealer based at 27 Hope Street, Glasgow.(3) The company secretary, George Oughterson, also had financial interests, and the pair of them began to build the prospects of the new company by arranging meetings and encouraging potential shareholders to visit the old copper trials at Gourock.(4) Exploration of the 18th century workings took place during March and April 1862.
