Looking across NS5827 from the Auchenlongford farm road end towards the scar being left in the landscape by the quarry workings on Tincorn Hill. Tincorn Hill results from an intrusion of igneous rock which provides a very durable material for the construction of roads. The area is mainly covered in rough grazing for sheep with patches of improved grassland which in the summer may also be grazed by beef cattle.
