NS4078 : The former site of Highdykes Farm

taken 5 years ago, near to Bonhill, West Dunbartonshire, Scotland

The former site of Highdykes Farm
The former site of Highdykes Farm
The site in question is, roughly, the location of the buildings slightly left of centre, that is, the ones behind the left-hand end of the fence. The farm was shown here on the first-edition OS map (surveyed in 1860) and on later maps throughout much of the twentieth century.

The viewpoint is from the point where a track first enters a built-up area, which is part of Broomhill Crescent (NS4078 : Houses on Broomhill Crescent, Bonhill), in the Beechwood and Wheatcroft Estate.

For a view in the opposite direction from the same point on the track, see NS4078 : Track to Highdykes Farm. Followed in that direction, it leads to the current location of NS4078 : Highdykes Farm; see that picture for further comments.
