"The two parishes of New or Old Kilpatrick,occupy a large portion of if that district of Scotland formerly called Lennox or Levenach -the field of Leven. The Etymology of Kilpatrick is plainly the Gaelic Cil, a church or Religious house, prefixed to the name of the patron Saint of Ireland, to whom the Church of Kilpatrick was only dedicated.
The parish of New Kilpatrick is in the Counties of Dumbarton & Stirling, & as a separate parish is of comparatively modern date, having been disjoined from Old Kilpatrick in 1649. The disjunction is Quoad Omnia.
It is bounded on the north by the parishes of Strathblane & Killearn: on the west by Old Kilpatrick: on the South by Renfrew & Govan and on the East by the Barony of Glasgow, Cadder, & Baldernock.

[Continued from page 1]
"The Kilpatrick hills or Braes, disjoined from the Campsie Fells, by a gap of 3 or 4 miles in width, making way for the Blane with its beautiful Strath, & for the black water of Allander, lie partly in the parish. To the antiquary, the parish presents little that is interesting, except what arises from the Wall of Antoninus, which crossed it, at its widest part, from east to west. The description of this wall by Gordon in his Itinerarium Septentrionale, is in a great measure applicable to its present state. "The forts at Castlehill, & New Kilpatrick", the "ditch running up the hill at Ferguston" & the "causeway at New Kilpatrick" are still nearly in the condition he describes. Two stones dug from the ruins of these forts, & noticed by Gordon, the one as the largest, & the other as the noblest Roman stones ever found in Scotland, are preserved in the Hunterian Museum of the University of Glasgow." New Statistical Account
The nearest market-town is Glasgow 7 miles distant from the centre of the parish, the only village of any consideration is Milngavie, in which considerable trade is carried on, in Calico printing, Bleaching & Cotton Spinning. The means of communication are abundant. The Glasgow, Dumbarton & Helensburgh Railway & the Forth & Clyde Canal passes thro' [through] this parish in the South from East to West. |

A large Reservoir recently constructed with the Loch Katrine and Glasgow Water Works. It extends from the mouth of a Tunnel in the north, in Strathblane Parish a distance of more than half-a-mile, but in width it varies considerably. A line of cast metal Pipes from 3 to 5 ft. [feet] in diameter, laid along the bed of the Reservoir conducts the water to the "Stand Pipe" & "Straining Tank" at the southern extremity. The Pipes are upon the authorities quoted not straight between the points described and can therefore be shewn only by reference to the Engineer's Map. - On the east - the "Barrachan"side, a part of the side of the Reservoir is in an almost natural state, but all other sides excepting some slight portions at the Straining Tank have well made banks, and in some parts as shewn on Examination Trace the emb. [embankment] is faced with mason work. The top of these banks is shewn by a firm line, and the dotted line shewn

on Trace at the bottom of the bank, is the top or highest point to which the water rises when the Reservoir is full. The top or high water mark is all [ ] upon the authority of Mr. Moor, 5 feet below the level of the top of the bank, and according to the fall of the bank the more or less the horizontal width of the bank or slope; for example, the south side, running westwards from the Straining Tank has a fall of o[ne] foot in every 3 ft. [feet], making in all 15 feet = 23 [links] to the plumbed or vertical 5 feet of the high water mark below the top of the bank. The bank on the west is 4 to 1 = 30 links, being 7 links broader than the former - The descrip[tive] terms written on Exam. [Examination] Traces, such as "Shuttle" i.e. Sluice, "Stand Pipe" "Surface Clearing Shuttle", "Overflow Shuttle or Sluice" & "Straining Tank", are, as described by Mr. Moor. The Straining Tank is a circular well of 60 ft. [feet] in depth at the bottom of which are Pipes connected with the Sta[nd] Pipe on the one side & the Tunnel which measures 414 yards long down the Centre of the Road leading to Mil[ngavie] in direction of Glasgow. A cast metal coveri[ng] with moveable frames on the outside of the same mater[ial] stands a few feet above the surface or top of this Well. It has been shewn on Trace in a dark colour. A fine Viaduct, having 3 arches crosses the Reservoir near the Parish Boundary. There is a Shuttle or Sluice and a weir (which cant be shewn) at the viaduct. |

The tomb stone, which stood the yellow shade shewn on Trace, was removed about 9 years ago, & is now built into the west side of the wall or dyke of the TP. [Turn Pike] Road over the Burn which flows along the fence on the north of the field in which the Chapel stood. The chapel is understood, as stated by the Revd [Reverend] Dr. [Doctor] Sym, to have been in the Cemetery of which all traces are now effaced. Nothing whatever remains of the Chapel either. The old tomb stone over the Burn on the Road side is about 5 ft. [feet] long & from 2 to 3 broad. It may easily be recognised in the dyke as a dressed slab. |

This is a house, belonging to the Parochial Board of New Kilpatrick, which is intended to accomodate any temporary cases of sickness among the poor. It is not much used. The house is styled "Poor House" but the Inspector calls it an Hospital The former is more correct according to use and for description is almost correct too. "Poor House" is applied to extensive establishments (Government) and Poors House is the mode of using smaller places like this. |

"The Castlehill - its circular top crowned with that chaplet of trees whose slender stems have usurped the place of the ancient Valla, & whose lengthening shadows stretch over the withered sward - still as the 'ghostly memories' of departed time. Leaving the little ravine at "Peel" (Glen)" a short ascent conducts the visitor to the summit, where, having made his way through this sylvan belt, he finds himself within a circular area, perfectly free of wood, excepting towards the centre, where one solitary tree rises before him, as if it had stept forth among the ranks of its surrounding comrades, and now took its turn of duty as warder of the ground - This narrow plantation incloses the site of the Roman Fort, of which not a vestige remains, unless the more fervent antiquary may be able to distinguish some traces of the ramparts in certain inequalities of the surface, which are slightly perceptible at one or two places. The Fort at Castlehill was, in size & strength, one of the least important along the whole line and may properly be placed in the third or lowest class. Its situation was, however, a very commanding one, & may account for the comparatively trivial nature of the defences. When Genl. [General] Roy visited this station he seems to have found its remains exceedingly indistinct; but he observed enough to shew that its area had been protected by a single Vallum & ditch, & that a branch, at least, of the Military Way" (See N. [Name] Sheet of M [Military] Way) "had passed directly through it. Its distance from the Station at Duntocher is 3450 yards or rather less than two English miles; and the space inclosed by the ramparts measured about 300 by 200 feet." Caledonia Romana. 302.

Station, within the narrow plantation, is very correct. Everyone in the locality knows the Site, but of the "traces of the ramparts in certain inequalities of the ground" (mentioned in the Romana) "which are slightly perceptible", none of the authorities can give information, nor is there anything in the place, where the "inequality" may be seen, of a regular form to rely upon as remains of the works. The place where a hollow appearance is to be seen, is between the trigl. [trigonometrical] Station on the top of the hill & a short way southward to the edge of the plantation. It is very slight & doubtful. The east side of the plantation or the Fort contains numbers of stones lying loosely about which appear to have belonged to the Wall & the works connected. Many of those stones have the chequered marks of a pick as described in the Cal. [Caledonia] Romana at "Peel Glen". On the outer side of the Plantation & close to it on the side - the ea[st where] the steading of Castlehill stand[s -] numbers of stones have been taken out at times by the farmer - Mr. Alexander, but not the least trace of anything is to be seen now on the surface of the ground either here or at any part of the Station of Castelhill. |

"For the last two hundred and fifty years, the site of the great northern rampart - known as the Wall of Antoninus, from its having been constructed in his reign - has commanded the attention of not a few amongst those of our national antiquaries whose ardour led them to penetrate the recesses of the land _ And seldom since the eye of the inquiring visitant first rested on the dilapidated traces of this ancient barrier, have many years been added in succession to the "measure" of its age, without one accidental circumstance or another exposing to light some fresh memorials of its Roman constructors; whose individual names appear at times before us, in sculpture as fresh as if the work of recent years, while the grandeur of their united labours has crumbled into dust." ___ "It is time, however, to say a few words as to the nature & supposed appearance of the work itself - gleaned from the accounts transmitted to our times by those who were so fortunate as to examine its remains when in a much more perfect state than now. This great work, then, consisted, in the first place, of an immense fosse or ditch - averaging about 40 feet in width by some 20 in depth - which extended over hill & plain, in one unbroken line, from sea to sea. Behind this ditch, on its southern side, and within a few feet of its edge, was raised a rampart of intermingled stone and earth, strengthened by sods of turf; which measured, it is supposed, about 20 feet in height, and 24 in thickness at the base. This rampart or agger was surmounted by a parapet, behind which ran a level platform for the accomodation of its defenders. To the southward of the whole was situated the Military Way - a regular causewayed road, about 20 feet wide - which kept by the course of the Wall at irregular distances, approaching in some places to within a few yards, and in others receding to a considerable extent. Along the entire line from West Kilpatrick to Carriden, there were established, it is believed, Nineteen principal Stations or Forts; we cannot be quite certain of the number, because, towards the east end of the Wall, the traces of their existence have, for two centuries at least, been either very indistinct or entirely obliterated. Calculating by those whose remains have been plainly perceptible, the mean distance between each may be stated at rather more than two English miles. Along these intervals were placed many smaller Castella or Watch-towers, of which only some two or three could be discovered in the year 1755. While the continuous rampart seems to have been little more than a well-formed earthen mound, it is probable that many, if not all the Stations, were either revetted with stone or entirely built of that material. In some places it would even appear that the Vallum itself had been raised upon a stone foundation - probably in situations where the ground

ground was low & marshy, and where it was necessary to form drains beneath the works, to prevent the accumulation of water on their interior side. Roy supposes the ditch to have constituted the chief strength of the whole, and seems to consider the agger itself as having been of very secondary importance. He was evidently led to this opinion from the insignificant appearance which even the best preserved of its sections presented when he saw them; it must, however, be remembered, as a circumstance highly probable, that the rampart was, in course of time, much more liable to be demolished than the fosse to be filled up - hence, perhaps, the distinct appearance of the one compared with the other." Caledonia Romana, Pages 269, 278 & 279.-
The Remains of the Fosse or Ditch of the Roman Wall, well known as "Graham's Dyke" to the farmers of every place it passes, may be said to be traceable from the eastern to the western Boundary of New Kilpatrick Parish. There are, however, some few exceptions of which the greatest length where the track is entirely obliterated, is near the point where the Wall crossed the Kelvin to the Fort of Balmuildy in Cadder Parish, Lanarkshire. The line between the parts where the connection is lost and cannot be shewn is well known, for in the time of the crops, in stubble, or when ploughed, the appearance is different in each case from that around the course of the Ditch. Every year the plough passes over the Ditch the hollow is extended, till, as in places where the connection is wanted, it becomes lost to the eye. Care has been taken throughout in surveying this antiquity to shew the actual width of the hollow as well as it can be defined at the present time - 1860. The hollow which the Ditch now forms presents four distinct appearances in the Parish; the first or faintest of which is shewn in the lightest shade used on the Examination Traces. This varies in width as represented and has a fall of from 1 to 3 feet from the level of the ground on the top to the bottom of the hollow. The remaining shades represent a gradual succession of steeper parts, the fourth being about equal to that of an ordinary cutting or embankment, except that the tops are not so defined or regular. "Ferguston Muir" is the only place in N. [New] Kilpatrick where the plough has never been through the Ditch. Here also are some faint but visible remains of the Wall of earth & stone &c., which is much broken & irregular on the top with its sides sloping - the one outwards to the Ditch & the other to the south or inner side. The highest part of this mound is not

not more than from 3 to 4 feet above the edge of the Fosse, and this remains only at one part - near its southern extremity. The parallel course of the mound by the side of the Ditch and its appearance, though much broken, leave no doubt of its being the remains of the Wall, which the authority of the Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Sym and the following description from the Cal. [Caledonia] Romana confirm. - "We pass from E. [East] Kilpatrick to cross the Milngavie Road, and afterwards ascend to Ferguston Muir where the hollow of the Ditch is to be seen in considerable perfection, with, immediately to the south of it, some feeble traces of the rampart itself". (P. [Page] 310) Farther on the latter authority makes mention in an extract from a writer (Horsly) on the Wall of Antoninus, that in 1730 at this place (Ferguston Muir), "the foundation of the wall the under course of which had been composed of stone, was to be traced for nearly a mile from the middle of the Muir in direction of Summerston. This foundation was 12 feet broad and had drains or conduits formed in it for the escape of water ". (P. [Page] 311) There is nothing to be seen now of this work, nor is there anything known of it in the neighborhood. Traces of the Fort at N. [New] Kilpatrick, similar to the remains of the Ditch, have been adopted upon the best authorities & shewn after the same manner as the Remains of the Ditch. All traces of the Fort at Castlehill are entirely effaced, a circular belt of Plantation now enclosing what is well known to be the site of this Station. Of the Military Way throughout the Parish there is little known correctly, what has been pointed out being, with a single exception, long ago converted into Parish & other Roads, leaving no clear traces of the Causeway, and the information obtained being very indefinite as to the extent which the Way occupied of or on these roads (See N.S. [Name Sheet] of M.W. [Military Way]). Every part of the Remains of the Ditch, as well as the other antiquities connected with it - Forts & Military Way, have been identified on the ground from place to place by the best authorities to be had. There is but one place in the Parish - at Castlehill, where one of those Stones, bearing what is called a "Legionary Inscription", is known to have been found, although numbers bearing similar records &c., have been got on the line of Wall in N. [New] Kilpatrick. The line has been followed from west to east, in parts, as follows, upon the several authorities quoted for each portion.
The Remains of the Fosse or Ditch where it crosses the western Boundary of the Parish over "Cleddin Burn" (Trace 1.23-15) coming from the Fort at Duntocher in O. [Old] Kilpatrick Ph. [Parish], is in good preservation as it ascends "Hutcheson Hill", and as far as "Peel Glen". This part as pointed out by Mr. J Alexander & W. Barclay of Castelhill & N. [North] Hutcheson, is very distinct particularly the south side of the Ditch on the top of the hill, where it runs along the edge of the ridge-like form of the hill as it descends northwards. The part described also corresponds with the description in the Cal. [Caledonia] Romana P. [Page] 301, which says, "Immediately on leaving that little stream (Cleddin Burn) we come upon the excavation of the Fosse in tolerable perfection. It may here be followed, more or less distinct for about the third part of a mile, through the cultivated fields of a rising ground called Hutcheson Hill. At the end of this track its vestiges become again almost obliterated - scarcely visible in crossing Peel Glen and barely to be distinguished as, from that low position, it mounts the steep ascent of the Castle Hill, on the summit of which stood what we shall call the third of the Wall Stations". (The first & second stations - Chapelhill & Duntocher, tracing the course of the Wall from the west, are in O. [Old] Kilpatrick Ph. [Parish]). Pages 301 & 302 (Cal. [Caledonia] Romana) there is mention made of a stone pavement in the bed of the stream through Peel Glen being visible, and which is supposed to be the remains or foundation of an ancient Bridge, but it is not to be seen now. There is nothing known either of a Castellum which "Roy imagined he could perceive some traces of in 1755". The people of the neighborhood, generally believe that the wall took a horse-shoe form in crossing Peel Glen. In the last quotation from the Romana there are chequered stones spoken of, as belonging to the supposed Bridge at the glen being seen built into the houses near. These stones, as if wrought with a pick, are to be seen at different parts of the line of Wall in N. [New] Kilpatrick, particularly at "Thorn", Castelhill, & the "Temple", as well as at "Peel Glen"; they are lying loosely about the fields or in the hedges. The old Ph. [Parish] Road south of the Wall on Hutcheson Hill, which was formerly the high road to Dumbarton is said to be on the M. [Military] Way, but its extent - i.e. the M. [Military] Way on it, is of course very indefinite. From Peel Glen, as pointed out by the last authorities quoted, as well as Mr. Main of Windyhill, to the "Thorn" Steading (Trace 6-23-11), passing the Fort of Castlehill of which no traces exist, the Fosse varies as represented. A short distance to the west side of the site of the Fort, & in the south side of the Ditch, as shewn by Mr. Alexander , (marked on Trace) a stone bearing an Inscription was dug up about 5 or 6 years ago. It is now in the possession of Mr. Buchanan of the Western Bank. The hollow between the points last described is not deep until it comes to the strip of plantation near "Thorn", where it becomes bold & steep to the depth of 4 or 5 feet in passing across an angular form of the strip. The small steep slopes falling inwards from the fences, as represented in crossing the plantation, is the deep part, and the slope shewn on the outside of the Plantation in the arable ground, is the south side of the Ditch as it appears now from the same causes which have spread the width of the Ditch at other places in arable ground - the plough. The outer or north side of the Ditch appears to have been originally not so deep as the inner side. This appears to be accounted for here by the Wall running along the brow of a ridge which falls immediately from the Ditch to the outer, or north side. It has been observed that where the Wall ran in a similar position at other places - as at the Fort of New Kilpatrick (Trace 1.23-16) where the south side of the Ditch (if there were a north side ?) is along the top of the steep bank which falls to the north to the Burn below, that

that the traces of the outer side are very faint. The same thing may be noticed on Hutcheson Hill, and in the field to the east of "Ferguston Muir". (6-23.12), where the Wall ran along the top or brow of a ridge. From Thorn to Ferguston Muir, as pointed out by the Revd Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Sym, passing the village of Kilpatrick & the Fort there the track of the Fosse is easily followed except where a house or other enclosed part of N. [New] Kilpatrick village has been placed on the line of wall, defacing completely the hollow for a short distance. Immediately to the east of Thorn in a field, and upon the inner or south side of the hollow, there are two distinct appearances; the upper or short steep bank represented appearing to be the mingling of the wall of earth with the side of the Ditch; the under sloping or fall being exactly of the same depth as the opposite side of the great Ditch. No opinion has been given of this part by the authorities quoted. There seems to be naturally a ridge on the inner side of the part described not much broader than the breadth the wall occupied, but in no other part of the Fosse in the Parish, is there anything more easily seen. Both slopes described appearing to be distinct from one another. This part is ploughed over. Passing the top - the north of the station at N. [New] Kilpatrick, along the top of a steep bank falling to the Burn below (before described) the continuation of one side of the Ditch is well preserved, but eastwards from the Fort to the Farm house of Ferguston (2-23-16) the hollow is lost for a short distance. The course of the Burn north of the Station appears to be partly formed in the Fosse going eastwards to Ferguston. From the last traces seen of the hollow to the east of the fort to the south side (this supposed south side is very unnatural in form probably from filling in the Ditch) which remains in front of Ferguston Steading, the track is lost, but as stated by Mr Burnside, the Farmer, great quantities of stones, which may be seen on the roadside, are taken out of a spot where the curve of the Fosse would cross the Ph. [Parish] Road into the field in which the Steading of Ferguston stands. The Ph. [Parish] Road through the Fort is said to be on the line of the Military Way. It is known as the Causeway to the older inhabitants as far west as "Ledcameroch" (Trace 3.23-15, See N.S. [Name Sheet] of M. [Military] Way) "Tradition", says the Cal. [Caledonia] Romana "(P. [Page] 308) points to a spot in the vicinity" (of the Fort of N. [New] Kilpatrick) "called the Bears Den as the burial place of the Roman Garrison". This is generally known & believed by the Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Sym to be in this case correct, but nothing more than this can be said as nothing has been found to corroborate the tradition. The name "Bearsden" is applicable to Cothouses (1.23-16). After crossing the T.P. [Turn Pike] Road near Ferguston (better known as the "Milngavie Road" here) the fosse is deeper on the south side in ascending the hill to "Ferguston Muir" than at any other place in the Parish. While making a cutting for the Loch Katrine Water Pipes about two Years ago (1858) a causeway or foundation similar to such, as stated by Mr. Cole Inspector of Water Pipes, was found in the track of the great Ditch close to the east side of the T.P. [Turn Pike] Road, in the arable ground. In the Muir (Ferguston Muir) part of the Rampart or Wall with the Ditch in excellent preservation may be seen. (See descript. [description] of this part in the beginning on the other side). The old road to the south of the Wall in Ferguston Muir is understood to be on the Military Way, but its actual or even probable extent is very indefinite. From Ferguston Muir to the Farm of "Temple of Boclair" as pointed out by Mr. A Russell of Boclair & A McLachlan of the Temple, the course of the Wall is easily traced, the hollow of the Ditch, or the south side of it in the field adjoining the Muir being, as before described, very plain. It ran upon a ridge in this field. After crossing the Ph. [Parish] Road between the last points described, the hollow is generally faint and has formed in it fences & dykes for the divisions of fields. Considerable turns are made here which is verified by the Cal. [Caledonia] Romana (P. [Page] 311) which says "the course of the Wall took considerable turns in order to keep the high grounds, especially that commanding height which overlooks a place called the Temple, & to avoid as much as possible what must anciently have been the marshy hollows round Millochan Farm". After turning the high point which is a small wood near the Trigl. [Trigonometrical] Station (Trace 4.24-9) the hollow track is unconnected more between this & the Kelvin than at any other part of the Parish. The portion between the T.P. [Turn Pike] Road & "Summerston" (6.24-9), as pointed out by Mr. Graham & Mr McLachlan, is well seen. The Wall is known to have passed through Summerston Steading but no more Traces can be shewn than appears on the Trace. From Summerston to the Kelvin as pointed out by Mr. Graham & Messrs. Scott & McFarlane of Balmuildy Farms on the Lanark side of the river, the hollow of the Ditch is seen at intervals very faintly until it approaches near to the river side where it is somewhat better defined. This is the last point in New Kilpatrick Ph. [Parish] where the hollow of the Fosse or Ditch of the Roman Wall is seen going in direction of the Fort of Balmuildy in Cadder Ph. [Parish] Lanarkshire. The point shewn where the Wall crossed the Kelvin to the Fort of Balmuildy is only a site, nothing is to be seen close to the rivers edge on either side. That shewn on Trace in red as the point of crossing would give a very unusual turn to the Wall. The traces of the Fort on the opposite side are obliterated - Nothing is known of the site of the Military Way from Ferguston Muir to Balmuildy & Summerston. |

"The Roman Wall consisted in the first place of an immense Fosse or Ditch - averaging about forty feet in width by some twenty in depth - which extended over hill & plain, in one unbroken line from sea to sea. Behind this Ditch, on its southern side & within a few feet of its edge, was raised a rampart of intermingled stone & earth, strengthened by sods of turf, which measured , it is supposed, about twenty feet in height & twenty four in thickness at the base. To the southward of the whole was situated the Military Way - a regular Causewayed road, about twenty feet wide - which kept by the course of the Wall at irregular distances, approaching in some places to within a few yards, & in others receding to a considerable distance." Caledonia Romana P. [Page] 278 & 279.
From the eastern to the western Boundary of New Kilpatrick, by the course of the Wall - the Fosse, no clear remains of a Causeway are to be seen in those parts which have been pointed out & described by the personal authorities quoted as on the line of the Military Way. At some parts which will be afterwards noticed in succession from west to east, there is some roughness in the shape of stones partly above the surface, which may be considered as unusual in ordinary old roads. All the portions authorized as on the Military Way have been long ago converted into country roads, which is supposed to be the reason the people know so little about the Causewayed road to the south of the Wall. Almost the best proof to be traced now of the authorities quoted - the personal authorities, being correct for at least one of the parts adopted, is the local name - "Causeway", given to the road between Ledcameroch & the Fort of New Kilpatrick (23-15 & 16). This road passes through the Fort, to which all accounts both of the Fort & the Military Way agree. As stated by the Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Sym, the name "Causeway" in his young days - about 50 years ago, was well known, & he remembers seeing the Causeway tolerably distinct at places between the Fort & Ledcameroch. The other personal authorities quoted know the name "Causeway", as well as that it was the "Ancient" Road. Except the part just described, the actual extent to which the title of Military Way applies is generally very indefinite, and it has therefore been adopted only so far as the information obtained on the ground corresponds with the best Account seen - the Cal. [Caledonia] Romana compiled from the several writers on the subject. _ Beginning at the western Boundary of New Kilpatrick Parish, where the course of the great Ditch would cross over "Cleddin Burn" into O. [Old] Kilpatrick, an old Road between this & the Farm steading of N. [North] Hutcheson is, upon the authorities quoted on the line of the Military Way. How far east from the Burn (for this road would pass across the course of the Fosse at the Burn), the name should begin or the Causeway began in the present road is indefinite, but the Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Sym considers it to the "south of Hutcheson Hill" as the continuation of the "Causeway" from New Kilpatrick Fort by Ledcameroch, touching the north-west corner of "Garscadden Wood" This part was formerly the high road from Dumbarton to Glasgow. Between the points described the road is rough, with stones scattered through it, partly embedded in the ground, but there is nothing whatever of the regularity of the Causeway. The stones are generally of a round form - some of them almost as big as a man's head. This Road is not much used now. From the point where this old road joins the regular thoroughfare - the Ph. [Parish] road going north & south, to the south of N. [North] Hutcheson (23-15-2), no road or track is visible on the course the authorities describe, until coming to the north west corner of "Garscadden Wood". After crossing the Parish Road the continuation to the top corner of Garscadden

Wood" is said by the authorities to have kept the north side of the fence which runs up from the Road to the Wood. There is no track on this side but there is on the the south of the fence a road partly a Right of Way in connexion with the "Causeway" at Ledcameroch, and principally a road to the Farm of Castlehill (5.23-11). The portion of old road at the north west corner of "Garscadden Wood", well known as the continuation of the "Causeway" from N. [New] Kilpatrick Fort, but not within the extent to which the name applies, as it is used, is a deep hollow now, with a few loose stones scattered about the bottom. This is grown over with close underwood & thorn. The stones in this hollow track are of various sizes, some appearing to have come out of the dike sides enclosing it. From the corner or top of the wood to the strip of plantation (Trace 3.23.15), which runs southwards & joins the wood, where the fences end which enclose the "Causeway", at its west end, there is no track except the Foot path (the Right of Way) which is said to be on the line of Way. From the strip of plantation to the Fort of Kilpatrick, passing Ledcameroch, the road is known to the older people as the "Causeway". It also applies for an indefinite length beyond the Fort. The whole of the parts described as well as the remainder of what it known of the Military Way on the Parish, is upon the authority of the Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Sym and the other personal authorities. With reference to the M. W. [Military Way] between the Fort at N. [New] Kilpatrick & "Cleddin Burn", the following description from the Caledonia Romana P. [Page] 301 is given, shewing how far the information got on the ground corresponds - "The Military Way diverged considerably (from the Wall) after passing the Cleddin Burn, but on leaving the Peel Glen it again approached the entrenchments - gradually nearing them as they ascended to the Fort in advance (Castlehill). It has been thought, however, that another branch of the Causeway had been conducted along the low grounds, and almost in a straight line towards Kilpatrick, for the purpose of avoiding the adjacent heights - In general the Via closely accompanies the line of the Wall: when the case is otherwise, it has evidently diverged in order to avoid some considerable turn of the works". Nothing whatever is known of the track or line close to the entrenchments at Castlehill. The branch supposed to have taken almost in a straight line to Kilpatrick agrees here very well with the "Causeway", the part at the north-west corner of Garscadden Wood, and the old road to the south of Hutcheson Hill. The ground however is not low on the line of the "Causeway" 'though it is a good deal below the Castlehill Fort. That part of the Causeway running parallel with the Fosse where the latter makes a sharp turn in the field immediately to the west of N. [New] Kilpatrick Village, does not agree with a description of the Way P. [Page] 306 & 307 which says. "A small portion of the Military Way remains indeed, in a state of considerable perfection. within a field immediately to the west of the high-road which passes East Kilpatrick; but as it is now covered to the depth of several inches by earth, and overgrown with grass, nothing of its appearance can be observed without having recourse to the spade; when, however, the surface is removed, the causeway may be perceived, in breadth about 20 feet, & some 18 paces distant from the line of the great ditch - formed of stones of various sizes, small boulders & such like compactly laid together". The distance from the Fosse to the "Causeway" does'nt correspond with the line shewn by the Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Sym, which may be the branch alluded to above, & there appears to be a mistake here in the Account for the Causeway in the field immediately to the west of the village, in a field, has not been seen by persons cultivating this ground. The Ph. [Parish] Road between Ferguston Farm house (23-16-2), after passing through the Fort, & the remains of the Fosse is also authorized as on the M. [Military] Way, but its western extent is of course indefinite. After crossing the Milngavie Road - the T.P. [Turn Pike] Road, the Ph. [Parish] Road to the south of the Fosse, ascending the hill to Ferguston Muir, as shewn by Dr. [Doctor] Sym, is upon the Way. This is also indefinite eastwards, & has only been applied as far as the point where it takes a bend immediately to the south of the south-western remains shewn of the Rampart or Wall in Ferguston Muir. The Cal. [Caledonia] Romana P. [Page] 310 states that "in Gordon's time the Ditch on Ferguston Muir was fully 30 feet broad & about 20 deep; the M. [Military] Way was likewise very conspicuous passing for some distance within 13 paces of the Wall - now receding from & again approaching towards it". No traces of the Way are to be seen in the Muir, nor is anything known of it from Ferguston Muir to Summerston & Balmuildy at the Kelvin - the Boundary of the Parish of New Kilpatrick. |

"At Drumry, near Garscadden are some
ruins, said to be those of a chapel, which
there undoubtedly was at that place; but which
had every appearance of being part of a
keep or peel; what now remains being
a patched tower overhanging a steep bank.
At a period considerably remote, the
lands of Drumry belonged to a branch of
Callender family."

"After passing a short way beyond the village, we reach the site of East Kilpatrick Fort - now a cultivated field. In the spring of the year, before the vegetation has begun to show itself above the surface, a slight appearance of the trenches may yet be seen, especially towards the south west angle of the Station, where the usual curve may be plainly followed by the eye - Unlike the Praetenturae of Duntocher & Castlehill, that of East Kilpatrick did not stand upon a height, but occupied a position on comparatively level ground, in the centre of what may be called a wide & open gorge, through which the highways from Glasgow to Dryment & to Milngavie now proceed. This, as Genl. [General] Roy remarks, was one of those points of the line to which the attention of the natives was very likely to have been directed when watching for an opportunity of forcing their way into the Roman province; hence it was, we may suppose, that this position had been chosen for the establishment of a considerable garrison; as the Fort at East Kilpatrick was certainly one of those which ought to be included among the Praetenturae of the first class - Of an oblong form - rounded as usual at the corners - this station was defended on three sides by a double course of ramparts & ditches, and on the fourth by the line of the continuous wall with its projecting fosse. The area, inclosed within it interior Valla, measured about 480 by 330 feet; from which, on the East, West & South, the entrenchments extended outwards to the breadth of more than 130 feet. The Military Way passed directly through it, and its distance from Castlehill was 2450 yards. In front of its position to the north, the ground becomes wooded & slightly precipitous - descending towards a small rivulet that flows in an easterly direction, bordered upon one side by the village church yard, & on the other by that plantation of trees whose clustered foliage conceals the rugged bank, along which the Wall of Antoninus had passed" - Caledonia Romana Pages 307 & 308.

The remains of this Fort, pointed out by the Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Sym of New Kilpatrick, are in tolerable preservation, considering that the traces of the Stations generally upon the line of Wall are not to be seen now. There are three distinct appearances in what remains of the trenches at the present time, the deepest being next to that of an ordinary cutting except that the tops are not so regular or well defined. The remains have been shewn after the same manner as those of the great Ditch of the Wall - Name Sheet of which See.
The Military Way known as the "Causeway" to the old people of the district, passes through this Station as described in the Caledonia Romana quoted on the other side. It is now a Parish Road. The west side of this Fort where it passes across the Road - the "Causeway", leaves a hollow in it which is plain to be seen & well known to the authorities quoted as the trench. No Traces are now visible between the great Ditch of the Wall & this Ph. [Parish] Road, or "Causeway", on the east or west sides. The whole of the remains shewn are ploughed over yearly. Better remains than those described in the Cal. [Caledonia] Romana (p. [page] 308), are to be seen on the inner or north side of the trench or ditch forming the south side of the Fort of Kilpatrick. Mention is made in the 'Romana of a spring of water "within the ramparts; the water from which has been recently led into a drain, & now makes its crystal appearance towards the bottom of the field" (the south of the Fort) "When first discovered a few remains of masonry existed near it." There is nothing now to be seen of any masonry within the area of the Fort, nor do the authorities given know of its position nor of the spring itself. |

A hamlet having the Parish Church & School & a Post Office in it. The village is on the line of the wall of Antoninus, and there are the remains of a Fort still visible here, a very short distance from the houses, on the east of the village. The T.P. [Turn Pike] road from Drymen to Glasgow passes the west side of New Kilpatrick, and a Parish Road, better Known of old as the "Causeway", runs from East to West through the lower part of the village, passing through the Fort on the Roman Wall. This Road (the "Causeway") is on the Military Way which kept to the south of the R. [Roman] Wall. "Tradition", says the Cal. [Caledonia] Romana, "points to a spot in the vicinity called the Bear's Den, as the burial place of the Roman garrison; upon what

"grounds we cannot discover; but it is possible enough that in a matter of this kind she may not be very much at fault." This tradition is well known, but that is all, for nothing remains or has been seen at Bearsden of Roman remains in the time
of the authorities (personal). There is not a smithy in N. Kilp. [New Kilpatrick] nor is there an Inn or P. [Public] House. Sometimes in writings &c. the distinction East instead of New is used, but the latter New is the more popular. The Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Sym authorizes "East" as the better distinction. |

This name applies from the East side of the field which the Roman Wall enters after crossing the T.P. [Turn Pike] Road, going eastwards, to the point where the great ditch passes out of the Rough pasture ground. (23-16 Trace 6.) The two fields or enclosures at the south west described as pasture on the Traces were, as stated by the Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] Sym, formerly - about 30 years ago, planted with trees which have since been cut down. The name upon the Dr. [Doctor]'s authority belongs properly as much to these enclosures as to the moor ground higher up - eastwards The name is famous in the neighborhood, as well as in accounts of the Roman Wall, from that great antiquity passing through it and which is the only place in the Parish or for miles on either side where traces of the Wall of earth remain so visible or indeed at all. |

This Name is given to two separate properties the one at "Croftbank" (south, Trace 5) & the other to the north on this Trace. There are besides these two other Chapeltons - East Chapelton on this Trace & Chapelton Farm Steading (Trace 5). The West Chapeltons are both steadings also. It has been considered most judicious to apply "West Chapelton" once only so as to be understood to both places, particularly as upon a smaller scale the repetition would appear unnecessary and needless. The origin of Chapelton is, as stated in Accounts of the Parish, from a Chapel in former times being in the locality of which the only clue that appears to be found of it is from a place or old house where St. Germains stands, being called

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. |

This name is now used in various forms. About 5 years ago Pig Iron was produced from the smelting Furnaces here, but Coal and Iron of the neighborhood failing to suit the exact purposes required for smelting the calcined Ironstone, the furnaces were abondoned & have not been used since, nor are they ever likely to be so again, as stated by the authorities. The houses about are sometimes called the Garscube Rows and, as coal is still wrought at the place, it also takes the name of Garscube Colliery and sometimes the "Netherton Rows". The Factor deems it more correct to adopt the Name or description of works which first belonged to the place, and which is the only Name that proper authorities can be obtained for |

This Farm belongs to Garscube Estate the property of Sir A. Campbell Bart. [Baronet]. It takes its name "Castle" by which it is much better known than "Dawsholm", from a square building on the west side of the steading having turreted corners on the outside - or west side. The proprietor does not recognise "Castle", it being let, and appearing in all documents connected with the property as Dawsholm.

There are few people in the Parish who would speak of the place as "Dawsholm". The Farmers of the country around know it as "Castle" and from the Tenant being an extensive Farmer the agricultural reports &c. of Shows always give it in this name. "Dawsholm or Castle" has been adopted on the Examination Trace in consequence of the peculiar usage of the Name by the Public & the Proprietor. |
