Distillery in the former drive house of the swing bridge in the port of Glasgow

It’s actually called Turnip the Beet! Nice stuff here. Can be tourist busy

Nice coffee and sandwiches with vegan friendly options and outdoor seating

The distillery hasn't been producing whisky for long. With its modern appearance, the Clydeside Distillery has something to offer. A worthwhile destination, even if other distilleries already have more to offer.

Cadder Parish Church of Scotland. There's a carpark next to the canal so you can start/finish the walk there, or further along the canal

The original Castle on this site was built in the 13th century by the Graham family. The Grahams were a family on the rise and the family were made the Earls of Montrose in 1505. The most famous Graham resident of Mugdock Castle was James Graham (1612-1650) known as The Great Montrose. He was a poet and soldier who fought for the cause of King Charles I during the Wars of The Three Kingdoms (more commonly referred to as The English Civil Wars) and was marked as one of the greatest soldiers of the time. So great was his military fame that King Louis XIV offered him the role as Marshal of France. His success ultimately ran out in 1650 with the loss of The Battle of Carbisdale in Rosshire. Montrose was betrayed by a fellow Scotsman and was ultimately Hung, Drawn and Quartered for his part in the war. His campaigns were immortalised by Sir Walter Scott in his 1819 novel A Legend of Montrose.

On a nice day it’s the perfect little spot to take a wee break and grab a bite or a drink. It’s situated right on the tow path so you don’t need to worry about finding it!

Rode here on a gravel bike and was OK!
