As the title suggests this lade took water from the Craigdouffie Burn to a corn mill at Auchincloch almost mile to the south east astride the A803 Kilsyth - Banknock road. Filled in circa.1975 according to a long time local resident of Mailings this lade was 3/4 of a mile (1.25km) long between the weir and where it joined the Auchincloch burn.
