Summary[edit]

Description
English: Remains of enclosure at ruins of Mattockhill See 1792142 for details of the ruined farmstead itself.

The dry-stone wall visible here is the surviving portion of an enclosure, shown on the first-edition OS map (c.1860), that was associated with Mattockill.

In the background, the slopes of Craigunnock are visible on the left; Sheephill Quarry is located on their far side (compare 326591).

Note also the area on the near shore of the River Clyde; this was formerly an oil terminal, but the site has now been cleared. For an older view of that area, as seen from exactly the same viewpoint, see 1806016; comparison with the older photo shows that the last couple of feet on the right-hand end of the wall have collapsed since that photo was taken.
