North of Glasgow the ground climbs quickly into the Campsie Fells, and a burn tumbles through the wooded ravine of Campsie Glen. The Romans marked the empire's north-west frontier across this county with the turf rampart of the Antonine Wall, best seen on Bar Hill above Twechar, where a fort once guarded the line. The Forth & Clyde Canal threads east through the old weaving town of Kirkintilloch, and at Milngavie walkers shoulder their packs and set off north on the West Highland Way.
