Weir [NAT]

OS 1:1250 map, 1972.

This weir crosss the River Kelvin, which here forms the boundary between the parishes of Glasgow (to the N) and New Kilpatrick (to the S). It may have controlled the water level at Dalsholm Paper Mills (NS56NE 2694).

The location assigned to this record defines the centre of the structure. The available map evidence suggests that it extended from NS c. 55928 69541 to NS c. 55926 69517.
