The course of a burn
The course of a burn
The hollow in the foreground, though dried up after a prolonged spell of dry weather, is the course of a burn that is marked on the 1:25000 map, feeding into a more substantial burn that passes the NS3976 : Old curling pond. See NS3976 : The course of a burn for a view from another angle.

In the right background is a flat platform-like area on which farm buildings once stood: see NS3976 : View to the site of Mains of Cardross Farm and related pictures.
Mains of Cardross

Mains of Cardross was a farm near the River Leven, 550 metres ESE of present-day Dalmoak Farm (Young's Farm), with which its former fields are now associated.

See a Geograph article — Link — for much more on this area and its relation to the site of the Cardross residence of King Robert the Bruce.
