Lindston Loch Flood

Lindston Loch has been extended after a period of heavy winter rainfall. Normally, there's no water on this side. The loch is a kettle lake, produced during the last glaciation when a huge block of ice was stranded. The ice sheets continued to lay down deposits around it producing the low, rounded drumlins that are so typical of this part of Ayrshire.
