Field Visit (16 April 2015)
Glenscorrodale was an early 19th-century farm steading lying between Sliddery Water and the road, at NR 9636 2796, and at the time of the first edition OS map appears to have been a substantial group of buildings.
To the west of Glenscorrodale, around NR 96254 27879, is a turf-covered bank that meanders approximately north/south but whose course was difficult to follow through dead bracken.
