There's always the tree Mary Queen of Scott's was supposed to have had a rest under to see! I always keep forgetting to take a photo of it.

My first post; I'll introduce myself in the appropriate thread.

I'm sure this has been done before on another site, but here's a link to a very high-definition aerial photo (taken in winter, 1959) of part the Dams, with Nitshill, Priesthill, old Darnley and Arden featuring.

It's from The Glasgow Story, and I could study this photo for hours:-

Welcome Neil

Glad to see you have made the trip over here. I have also started a thread in Urban Adventures for Nitshill. Hopefully you will be able to participate on adding some of your local knowledge.

Thanks for this web link.

Neil we appear to have been working at both ends of the Brock Burn today.

I have some photos of the Burn down in Priesthill. Haven't transferred them from my camera yet. Will hopefully get some posted up later.

Nice photos Neil.
