Old Travel Blog Photograph Drove Road From Carman Muir To Renton Scotland


Old travel Blog photograph of children on the old Drove Road, by Carman Reservoir, from Carman Muir to Renton in Central Scotland. A drovers' road, drove road or droveway is a route for droving livestock on foot from one place to another, such as to market or between summer and winter pasture. Many drovers' roads were ancient routes of unknown age; others are known to date back to medieval or more recent times. Carman Muir is an area of rising moorland located to the west of Renton in West Dunbartonshire, Carman Muir reaches a height of 800 feet at Carman Hill, which forms part of a ridge overlooking the Vale of Leven to the east. The Cardross Road cuts across it, while Millburn Muir lies to the north east.
