Industrial debris, Milton of Campsie
The remains of some kind of pipe bridge spanning the Glazert have been left behind to become a real safety hazard. The factory from which they emerge has been demolished.

Object beside Campsie Road, Milton of Campstie. Could this be a water pump once used in one of the many mills that surrounded the town?

Strathkelvin Railway Path, Milton of Campsie
The small post on the right carries a plaque which reads:
Brog
Trevor Cromie, 2019
Materials: White Marble Aggregate Concrete, Pigmented Concrete
‘Brog’ references 2 former Milton of Campsie industries,
Lillyburn Pulp Works and Cmpsie Ware, located near
This site. The Pulp Works produced exquisite paper pulp
Packaging and novelty items such as charity boxes. In the
Latter part of its production it also made paper pigeon
Nests and established two pigeon lofts with the factory
Grounds. Campsie Ware, started by Edward Langley in
1952, produced highly glazed ornaments, usually of birds
And other small animals. ‘Brog’ aims to meld reference to
both of these industries through the shared motif of the
pigeon. ‘Brog’ is a hybrid creature; the workers at Campsie
Ware once joked that they would keep on making birds ‘til
they looked like frogs.
The artwork in question is the white concrete pillar behind. It originally has a pigeon on the top, but sadly this has been vandalised or stolen.
