This aqueduct was built by engineer Robert Thom between 1825 and 1827. It takes water from the reservoir below Loch Thom and delivers it to Greenock. The aqueduct follows the contours of the hills at 541 feet, completing a route of 5 miles and collecting water from streams and small reservoirs along the way. Opened in 1827, the Cut was originally known as the Shaws Water, taking its name from the Shaws Burn.

A friend in Greenock sent me this photo of my aunts' old house, taken around 2003. I don't know who lives there now.
The Greenock Scout Association’s Corlic Pipe Band, 1971. I heard them play several times that year. (They became The Greenock District Scout Pipe Band in 1972)
A pipe tune written for me, "Miss Jane Edney" (as I was then) in 1971. I heard the band play it a couple of times but don't have a recording, which is a pity.
