When this picture was taken, a housing development at Dalquhurn, on what was once the site of Dalquhurn Dye Works, was still under construction. A lade that was built for the dye works had long been covered, but is being kept open as a feature of the new development, as shown here. An equivalent view from about two years earlier shows how the site has changed: Image Note that the houses appearing on the left in that photograph can also be seen in the present photograph.
