The Cleuch Burn drains from the western slope of the Blacksidend ridge to Sorn where it joins the R. Ayr. The farms along the minor road mark the dividing line between the improved grassland and the rough grazing of the higher hill land. The need to use trees and bushes to provide some shelter in a very exposed area is evident in the case of Laigh Brocklar Farm.
