Description: South-west slope of Black Hill, looking west along Bavelaw-Loganlea glacial drainage channel, Pentland Hills. Glacial drainage channel along north slope of Hare Hill. Water flowed from west to east. Gulleys on left of channel cut in Silurian strata. Note alluvial cones on floor of channel and the very gentle gradient and flat bottom of the channel. This and other Pentland Hills through-routes were formed as late-glacial drainage channels carrying meltwaters from the receding glaciers.
