(Malva moschata) The flowers are beside a short path that leads out of Broadmeadow Industrial Estate to meet a much longer footpath along the eastern bank of the River Leven. The short path is the "CP 157" referred to in the end-note, and the present picture shows its western end, at the River Leven. See Image for the other end of it. As for the flowers of this species, it seems that they are more commonly pink than white: see, for example, Image at Dumbarton Rock. Some cultivated varieties (of which this may be one) have white flowers.
