What is recorded here
Castlehead Milestone marks the Glasgow, Paisley and Johnstone Canal in Renfrewshire, though no date or builder is recorded. It stands as a small stone witness to water, trade and distance, perhaps touched by hands that measured the canal rather than admired it. The exact point is known within ten metres, but the life behind the mark remains unnamed.
