Anybody recognise this building please?
« on: Thursday 20 September 18 11:54 BST (UK) »
Found this photo when scanning an old album and can't recall where it was.

If it helps the rest of the album appears to be based in Cornwall and the white building to the left looks to be called George ***

Many thanks.

The white building to left appears to be the George Hotel Inverarary

If you look on Google Street View you will see that Inveraray parish church is in the middle of a roundabout.

The unpainted stone building between the church and Loch Fyne is Inverary Jail

Well that seems pretty conclusive, thanks very much everyone  :)

I did think the background scenery looked more Scottish than Cornish!
