Bonny Water and Red Burn confluence

Immediate view of the little and large water courses. I would advance the possibility of the burn joining the Red Burn here not being the Bonny Water at all but actually the Auchincloch Burn. I suspect the surveyors of the first O.S. survey in 1858 extended the length of the Bonny in error when in fact the name only came into being at this confluence.
