West Highland Way at Easter Carbeth
The West Highland Way and the John Muir Way coincide in this area; there is a small purple-and-white marker for the John Muir Way on the upper part of the signpost.
Both routes follow a path southwards up to this gate, where they meet the main road(*). They then turn left, following the road eastwards for a distance of about 300 metres: see Image, taken beside the same gate. The routes then leave the road again at Image, near which point the John Muir Way and the West Highland Way separate: Image
In this view, the buildings of Easter Carbeth Farm can be seen across the road. For a view in the opposite direction, looking across this gate from the other side, see Image
(*) At the time of writing, large-scale OS mapping calls this part of the road Ballachalairy Yett. I believe this to be a mistake. Early OS maps employed the name correctly (Image), but at some point since then, someone, most likely not knowing that "yett" is Scots for "gate", has misunderstood the name as applying to the road.

West Highland Way at Easter Carbeth
The gate is the one shown in Image; as noted there, the West Highland Way and the John Muir Way (their routes coincide in this area) meet the main road at this gate. From here, they follow the road for a distance of about 300 metres, before leaving the road again at Image
I was heading in the direction of view of this picture, while almost all walkers were travelling in the opposite direction; many of them will have been following the West Highland Way. The John Muir Way, part of which I was following on this occasion, would be officially opened three days after this picture was taken.

The West Highland Way near Easter Carbeth
The photograph is a counterpart of the more wintry Image Dumgoyne (Image) is visible in the distance, to the left of the path.
This part of the route, set between two dry-stone walls (as shown on the map and in this picture), was known as Tinker's Loan, as mentioned in Jimmie Macgregor's book "On the West Highland Way" (1985).
