The Sir William MacKinnon Statue is a memorial in Campbeltown honouring the town-born shipowner and imperial entrepreneur Sir William Mackinnon.
This project centred on bringing the statue back to Campbeltown after its earlier relocation to Dumbarton, ensuring it could be re-sited in a prominent public location with the right permissions and long-term care in place.
Work involved securing approval for the new site, preparing the location, and relocating the statue from its previous setting so it could be re-erected in Campbeltown (the move is recorded as taking place in 2003, with re-erection noted by 2004).
Re-siting and conserving the statue protects a tangible link between Campbeltown and one of its most internationally influential figures, keeping local history visible in the public realm and safeguarding the monument’s future through formal recognition and ongoing stewardship.
