Geograph - photograph every grid square

The small sign on the tree at the left indicates that this track leads to Maryland Farm. The farm buildings themselves are straight ahead, but are hidden by trees. The building that can be seen in the photograph is a house called Priestyard; for more information, and for a view from within that grid square, see NS4177 : Priestyard.

One of West Dunbartonshire's core paths leads along the track as far as this gate. Just beyond the gate, the core path turns, instead, to the left, to follow the north-eastern edge of Barr Wood.

For the view back along the track from the gate, see NS4176 : Track from Maryland Farm.

There are several "Next" links below; the reason is that the paths were updated more than once; in particular, the Woodland Trust (Scotland) had laid out a circular path in this area by 2014. That did not exist when the earlier pictures were taken; readers may choose whatever link they prefer in order to see the route as it existed at that particular time:
