Helensburgh

Helensburgh has served as a resort town on the Firth of Clyde in western Scotland since the late 18th century. Laid out in 1776 by Sir James Colquhoun, it retains the broad streets and ordered plan of a purpose-built seaside town, while its waterfront looks south across the firth. The Hill House, designed by Charles Rennie Mackintosh and completed in 1904, is a major work of Scottish architecture. Helensburgh was also the birthplace of television pioneer John Logie Baird.
