Antonine's Wall at Watling Lodge
Antonine's Wall running across central Scotland from the Forth to the Clyde was built in 142AD and is 37 miles long. It marked the northern frontier of the Roman Empire but was soon abandoned. The photo shows the ditch in advance of the wall with upcast mound to the left and ramparts to the right.Since it was built of turf on stone foundations much of the wall has been eroded but sections here also at Rough Castle and over Barr Hill are well preserved. It is now listed as a World Heritage Site.

New Aqueduct and Basin
One of the advantages of this new aqueduct is that the towpath is smooth, not cobbled, making it easier and safer to cycle across this than across the original cobbled ones.

Union Canal near Tamfourhill
The vegetation has colonised the sides of the new stretch of canal with such alacrity that you would never know it is new. I was interested to observe a gentle eddy in the widest part of the canal here, where water flowing west from the aqueduct seemed to be coming to a halt. The assorted twigs and leaves in the water mark the spot. Fantastic sky, too: classic mountain lee wave set up by strong winds blowing over the mountains from the west.
