NS 5644 7589 This dates from the 1885 onwards phase of the Loch Katrine water supply scheme. The water passes from the aqueduct into the gauge basin which is 130 imperial feet in diameter. The water passes from one section to another through apertures at the bottom of the walls. This checks the force of the water as well as stilling it before it enters the adjoining measuring pond or basin where the quantity passing into the reservoirs each day is measured.
