Broken boundary marker
Broken boundary marker
This was a boundary marker for the Clyde Navigation Trust. It is depicted on OS maps from the second edition onwards (c.1899), and stood here for over one hundred years. Unfortunately, its top part (some of which is shown in NS3477 : Broken boundary marker) has recently become separated from the base, which is shown in the present photograph.

See NS3477 : Broken boundary marker, which shows a remnant of the upper part, with the base behind it. See the end-note for further images, some of them showing the structure when it was still intact.

In the present photograph, NS3477 : Cardross Sawmill can be seen in the background, on the right.

For other views of the broken marker, see NS3477 : Old boundary posts / NS3477 : Old boundary posts / NS3477 : The Clyde at Cardross.
