In fact both Todside and Craighead seem to have vanished without trace. The end of a derelict building at Cotterclump is just visible at the left edge of the dark clump of trees. Having walked over this ground, I am not surprised that it is no longer tilled. It is extremely wet and heavy, and must have been a nightmare to drain and very demanding place to make a living. It is now used only for grazing cattle.
