023 | A little stream forming the March or Boundary between the Old & New Parishes of Kilpatrick. It rises on the Farm of Lawmuir in N. [New] Kilpatrick (23.10) & the name may be said to apply from that Farm or about it to about ½ a mile south of the point where it crosses the Roman Wall, from which it derives its importance as a Name, being otherwise a very insignificant stream, and only adopted from the many references to be found both in Accounts & from the people in speaking of this part of the line of the great Ditch of Antoninus' Wall. |
