Path at the southern end of Dalquhurn

The path shown receding from view is a recent one, but it will be used below as a reference for describing the original course (no longer apparent on the ground) of a track called the Howgate. The annotated satellite view linked from the first end-note shows the original line of the Howgate as a yellow line. As that satellite view shows, the *original* line of the Howgate is almost the same as the path that leads directly ahead in the present picture. For a view in the opposite direction, see Image; as noted there, the Howgate crossed what is now the site of the houses that are shown on the right in that image, on the southern side of the street. The *current* line of the Howgate is, in contrast, a well-made track that is located beyond the trees on the left, and is on the other side of a wall. Its course is shown as a green line on the annotated satellite view.
