A fashionable watering place consisting of superior villa residences and neat cottages on the Western shore of the Firth between Dunoon and Hunter's Quay, with which places it is virtually one, although each has it's own steamboat pier. Dunoon, Kirn and Hunter's Quay were formed into a Burgh in October 1868.
The first feu at Kirn was granted to John Brown of Stronsaul. The same year, Hugh McEwing, ferryman at Dunoon, feued an acre of land at Dhailingmhor. To keep pace with housing development and growth of steamer traffic, a private company known as Kirn Pier Company was formed. It feued the ground from Hafton Estate by a Charter dated 25th June 1846 and further ground was purchase from the Crown in 1858.
