The course of this road beyond the North Calder Water (NS 681 623) is largely unknown. 'Glasgow would probably be entered by way of what is now Great Eastern Road, and the route would appear to have been by the Drygate and Dobbie's Loan, Port Dundas, Possilpark and Lambhill to the fort of Balmuildy' (NS57SE 12). (But cf. RCAHMS remarks on NS66SE 26.)
