Carved gatepier
This gatepier at the end of a wall leading into Netherblane (a cul-de-sac) is a reminder that this was once the entrance to Blanefield House. It was the home of the Coubrough family, who owned the nearby printworks. The building was demolished to make way for the modern flats built in the 1970s that now occupy the site.

Valve houses and ventilation shaft, Blane Valley
On the left is one of the original 1856 valve houses from the Glasgow Corporation Water Works system which brought clean water from Loch Katrine to Glasgow. On the right is one of the 1932 valve houses. Both were built to control the flow of water in the large water pipes which run mainly below the ground. In the background is one of the ventilation shafts, above one of the pipes, with its very distinctive domed covering. The three structures, together with surrounding walls are Category B listed [http://portal.historicenvironment.scot/designation/LB51146].
