NS 6600 7425 to NS 6622 7431 The published course (OS 50 inch 1963) was resurveyed. Apart from an amorphous dip against the hedge line W of Grahamsdyke Road, there are no remains across developed land. It was noted on post-1957 surveys by OS investigators that Macdonald's (1934) line W of Cleddans ignored the extant OS survey on the 2nd edition of the OS 2 and a half inch (Stirlingshire 1898, sheet 33/2) and the local topography. The revised line is based on the re-examination of the 1898 survey and subsequent OS findings (see record sheet) in conjunction with excavation evidence further W (see NS 6595 7425).
