Carman Muir (SE) pylon access track
The line of pylons was originally set up in 1949, linking the area to the Loch Sloy hydroelectric scheme. The track was made in 2014 to provide access to overhead lines for refurbishment. It begins beside the remains of Nether Dalquhurn Farm — Link – and runs WNW, ending at about NS37807811. Vehicle tracks lead further in that direction, until a dry-stone dyke blocks the way. Beyond that dyke, access to the moor was gained from Cardross Road instead: Link
