Mr Milne, Superintendent
028 A navigable Canal between the Firths of Forth & Clyde. The Mile Posts on the Canal give distances from & to Grangemouth - at the Forth, Bowling Bay - on the Clyde, & to Port Dundas Glasgow, to which a short branch, in the Parish of Maryhill, Lanarkshire, conducts off the direct line. There are several Locks on the Canal in this Parish, as well as Drawbridges of wood, which are numbered regularly from the Forth to the Clyde. Both Bridges & Locks are generally identical in Name with the nearest properties, and in N. [New] Kilpatrick they are, in every case almost, near enough to be understood without being written.
