Looking towards BPI Visqueen Industrial-Ardeer from the dunes.

Ardeer was once an island with a sea channel running along to exit in the vicinity of Auchenharvie Academy. By the late 17th century the island had become a peninsula due to extreme sand movements which may have also choked the sea channel that had made Ardeer an island.
