Corkerhill to Langbank

 








Ok, so that's us in Paisley and already we've been through the bucolic, the riverine, and the pastoral. The natural spaces between Corkerhill and Paisley are wonderful. There is the White Cart Water at Mosspark running all the way to Paisley and beyond. Here, there is also the wooded Corker hill backlit by the late autumn sun. There is Crookston Castle in there somehwhere too, a 14th century tower house with exceptional views from its turret. Then there are the morning fields of Bathgo Hill, Leverndale Tower, Rosshall Park and its redwoods, Bull Wood and Jenny's Well. We even have some art deco housing too to admire near Hawkhead. All in all, a beautiful path to cycle, which I had almost forgotten because normally I jump the little train from Dumbreck to Paisley Canal (and thus miss out on all this wonder). At any rate, this morning, the train halted at Corkerhill claiming a points problem and would go no further. So, an opportuniity arose...

Approaching Kilmacolm...


Kilmacolm

Cutting up the back road behind Kilmacolm and down to Finlaystone Park which you can then cycle through and out onto the path alongside the motorway which will take you to Langbank train station.



At Langbank train station, finally, they've replaced the decrepit ash tennis court.
