There is a largely infilled rectangular pond, aligned from NNW to SSE, to the N of the coal mine described previously and just to the S of the Binniehill Road. It is not shown on the 1st edition of the OS 6-inch map (Stirlingshire 1864, sheet xxxv), but is depicted on the 2nd edition of the same map (1899) as an open rectangle. The current edition of the OS 1:10560 map (1968) shows a pond. It may have been a settling pond associated with the mine.
