What is recorded here
Gateside to Castlecary belongs to the nineteenth century, when canal water carried trade and people through North Lanarkshire. The channel is still marked on official maps, but the water may have gone or changed. If it remains hidden beneath fields or roads, it remembers the weight of barges and the patience of lock keepers.
