The present view is intended to draw attention to a burn that flows under the road at this point; its waters come from NS3681 : The Cross Stone Well and from several other burns. Shortly before it empties into Loch Lomond, the same burn flows under a NS3882 : Boardwalk behind the National Park Gateway Centre.
The Stoneymollan Road :: NS3681

This route from Balloch to the clachan of Kirkton was an old coffin road (see LinkExternal link for more details); its destination was the burial ground at St Mahew's Chapel – Link – near Cardross. The eastern part of this old road lies upon one of several parallel ridges; the underlying geology must therefore have played an important role in determining its course.
