Path near Greenland Farm
The footpath on the right, between the two fences, is part of the Crags Circular Path, a route for pedestrians and cyclists; see NS4375 : Path near Greenland Farm, which shows a gate at the start of that path; the present photo is a view from that gate. A short distance ahead, the footpath turns to the right: NS4375 : Path near Greenland Farm.

The track on the left-hand side of the fence leads to the farm and quarry; the signs there read: "Riggangower Quarry Landfill Site / Public Access Prohibited" and "Protective equipment must be worn at all times".
Path near Greenland Farm

The area near Greenland Farm had been the subject of protracted negotiations to secure public land access, as specified by the Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2003. The situation was resolved by the creation of a path, bounded by two fences, for the use of pedestrians and cyclists; it now forms part of the Crags Circular Path, a much longer route.
