027 | A deep ravine formed by a part of the range of the "Campsie Fells" falling to a stream which rises from the foot of the Earl's Seat, on the east side, near Fintry Parish, and flows southwards, forming the "Glazert Water" from the point where it joins the "Pow Burn" below "Lennox Castle" (Trace 1. 27.12) The extent or width of the Glen where the hills fall steep and abruptly to the Burn is shewn on the Traces by a yellow shade. The Glen becomes narrow towards the head of the Burn. The name of the Glen is usually given to the Burn from where the Glen terminates to its junction with the Pow - i.e. from about Knowehead (Trace 1. 27-8) to below Lennox Castle (Trace 1. 27.12). There are two Linns called the "Black Spout" and the "White Spout" on the Burn at Glenside (Trace 27.7) |
