Until 1913 the site of the west terminal fort of the Antonine Wall was thought to have been at or near Chapel Hill (NS 457 732), though discoveries made in the 1790's indicated that there was activity in the Old Kilpatrick area.

The location of the Old Kilpatrick fort was affirmed through excavation in 1913 (G Macdonald 1915).
