020 The head of this Burn is on "Fannyside Muir", coming from the Westmost Loch. In the first part of its course - as far as the point where it enters the "Vault Glen", it is known as Glencryan Burn, & during its course through the Glen it is named from the Glen - a Name not written on the Traces
as it may be understood, particularly as all the importance of the Name belongs to the Glen alone. Between the north side of the Glen and the junction of this Burn with the
"Walton Burn", it really bears no name watever; but from the point joined by the "Walton Burn". it is well known as "Red Burn" until it enters the "Bonny Water" a little north (in Falkirk Parish)
