Its extent has been considerably enlarged by the Glasgow Corporation in the construction of their water works as compensation for the water taken out of Loch Katrine to Glasgow. On the east side there is a Small Harbour or Quay for Boats. "An expansion of the beautiful River Teith, which may be said to take its rise from Loch Katrine, or more properly to originate in the numerous mountain streams which pour into the lake in cataracts from its steep and rugged banks." Fullarton's Gazetteer. |
