The Forth and Clyde Canal was completed in 1790 and it provided a route for vessels between the Firth of Forth and the Firth of Clyde at the narrowest part (35 miles, 56km) of the Scottish Lowlands. Closed in 1963, the canal became semi-derelict. Millennium funds were used to regenerate the canal. The Glasgow Branch of the canal is a Scheduled Monument with details at: http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/SM6771

Overgrown canal basin
This canal basin on the Glassgow Branch of the Forth and Clyde Canal used to serve a quarry which produced clay that was used to line the canal itself. It was later a small boatbuilding yard.
The grassland and woodland beside it are part of Hamiltonhill Claypits Local Nature Reserve.
