In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Coulport like this:
Coulport, a hamlet on the W side of Roseneath parish, Dumbartonshire, on Loch Long, 4 miles N by W of Cove. It maintains a ferry across Loch Long to Ardentinny, and has a new pier, erected in 1880, when also several acres were laid out for feuing purposes. The Kibble Crystal Palace, in the Glasgow Botanic Gardens, was removed from Coulport in 1872.
