| Description: | Just north of Carstairs village, Lanarkshire. The remains of a 'kettle-hole' probably marking the site of a dead mass of ice left as the Highland ice-sheet retreated north at the end of the last glaciation. Gravel kames are seen on each side of the hollow, presumably deposited along the ice-mass before it melted. |
