The Yarrow Seagull boathouse in Kirkintilloch, with Townhead Bridge in the background

The Glasgow Road Bridge, which takes the A803 over the canal just west of Kirkintilloch, was culverted after the canal was closed, but in 1990 it was replaced by a new bridge allowing navigation into Kirkintilloch.

By the Glasgow Road Bridge, an old canal stables block has been restored as a pub and restaurant.

Many large boats are based at Glasgow Bridge. The blue and white boat moored on the offside in this picture is the Ferry Queen, the Forth and Clyde Canal Society's original trip boat.

Hungryside Bridge carries the Torrance road over the canal west of Kirkintilloch. It is a steel lifting bridge, now fixed in position but high enough above the water to allow boats and walkers through.

At Cadder is a pleasantly tree-lined section of the canal. On the offside of the canal in this photograph, the bank is the Antonine Wall, which runs close to the canal for much of its length.

The bridge over the canal at Cadder was raised in early 2000 to give more headroom. This was achieved by removing the deck of the bridge, building up the abutments and then putting the deck back again.

The low bridge at Bishopbriggs was rebuilt in early 2000 to give full headroom over the canal. The photo shows the Nolly Barge, a community boat from Glasgow, navigating the almost complete bridge on 1/4/2000.

Stables blocks were built at various points along the canal to allow horse drawn boats to change their horses regularly. The blocks were built to a standard pattern, but some, like this one at Lambhill, are now in poor condition.

The canal has a pleasantly rural feel to it around Lambhill on the outskirts of Glasgow. The bridge here, like Hungryside, is an old steel lifting bridge.
