Main Road through Cardross
Image (Image) is in the background, on the right. The stone visible just ahead bears a plaque (Image), erected in 2000, with a brief commentary on the Napiers; specifically, on the Napiers of Kilmahew (on whom, see Image) and the Napiers of Merchiston. For example, it states that John Napier of logarithm fame was of the Merchiston Napiers (it does not mention the Robert Napier who is sometimes called the Father of Clyde Shipbuilding – see Image – but, judging by his heraldic arms at least, he appears to have been of the Kilmahew Napiers). Not far beyond the stone is the entrance to an area of housing called Scott Gardens, named after Cardross man William Stein Scott, a campaigner for social housing. See Image for a view in the opposite direction.

Old milestone in Cardross
This milestone is shown on the first edition of the 1:10560 OS map, surveyed in 1857, and is showing its age, but the text can still be read; it is more legible in a picture taken seven years later, after the milestone had been repainted: Image ← DUNBARTON CROSS 4 MILES → HELENSBURGH 4 MILES I have called this a milestone, although it is really a piece of iron. This one is set in front of a wall; other milestones on the same road are of the same kind, and have had short sections of wall built behind them: Image and Image
