The ruin is also depicted in another contributor's earlier photograph: Image In the present picture, it appears to be near its final collapse (for which, see Image, taken in 2019). It is located beside Image, on the course of the dismantled railway line (see the end-note). Unlikely though it might now seem, this former Forth and Clyde Junction Railway parcels van used as to be somebody's home; the chimney that can be seen built onto the hut is an addition made in that period. See Image for further details. Page 102 of the book that is cited there includes two photographs of the hut.
