A piece of Moorland lying at the North West Corner of Dowhill Muir and bounded by the Nivingston Road. It was formerly a Common but now it forms part of Blairadam estate. As might be inferred from the above there should be a place in this vicinity called Kirk Hill. If there was such a place formerly as it would appear there was, it is not known nowadays.
