Comments
Islay House was the estate of the Laird Walter Campbell of Shawfield (1741-1816), who did much to develop the island. Laird Campbell took an interest in Alexander Campbell during the family’s stay in Bowmore and recovery from the shipwreck, and invited him to visit Islay House. This is the entrance to the house where Alexander "spent many pleasant hours" (Richardson, 1868, vol. 1, p. 106).
