Possil Marsh Possil Marsh has a shallow freshwater loch surrounded by marsh, swamp and fen, with areas of willow scrub and grassland. The fen and swamp areas support locally rare plants and the reserve is also an important staging post during the spring and autumn migration for warblers and waterfowl. Why visit? Highlights include: Fantastic views of wildfowl Explosions of colour from wildflowers User-friendly paths across the reserve Best time to visit? May to Jul for breeding birds May to Aug for wildflowers Oct to Mar for wildfowl Visit for: birdwatching woodlands wildflowers scenery mammals wetland pond Other information Breeding birds on the reserve include reed buntings, moorhens and the secretive water rail. There is a path, accessed from the Forth & Clyde towpath, around the perimeter of the reserve.

Roman stuff again, I didn't know of this place until I stopped at lambhill stables café. Was cycling along the canal. Got talking to a customer and I mentioned the antonine wall. Was immediately told there was a distance stone and Roman head monument round the back of the stables. I love Roman stuff in Scotland and been to numerous sites on the wall. This was news to me . Disappointed that the Roman head was vandalized. But the replica distance slab was in good condition. Well done to lambhill for making the effort to provide this site. There is a lot of Roman history around here.

An ok walk. Paths not that clear and easy to wander off into the marsh. Would really benefit from more local artist sculptures like the big head sculpture that they have. Lambshill cafe is right next to the pathway into the marah.

Beautiful night Friday 16/4/21 for our walk. Loads of hints of spring there... buds and shoots etc. We walked on the South-bank between Milton/ B'briggs Leisure Centre. ( The unkempt side...like my hair!) Unfortunately on the downside there was quite a lot of empties, bags,cans, bottles etc due to this season's emptyheads. There has been been a fair amount of tidying up by those who tend the canal of dead branches fallen trees. So I hope those responsible for the litter that's created please remember to take it away with you as it's much lighter to carry on the way back. Can't wait until nature really starts to flourish....
