NS 5400 7210 to NS 5423 7211 Published course (OS 50 inch 1966) resurveyed. No ground remains apart from an 8m length of Wall base that remains exposed in a garden at NS 5419 7209.
Probing immediately W of these remains reveals a slight alignment angle. The new line is based on this evidence and the extant line of the Ditch shown on the 1st edition of the OS 2 and a half inch map (Dunbartonshire 1863, sheet 23/16) with which it is in sympathy.
