Geocache Description:

Magnetic cache. You'll need a pen. Located half way up the stairs - the cache had to be moved across the road (nearer to the actual coordinates) due to a bit of judicious housekeeping by the council!

The caul on the Nith below Devorgilla Bridge is of early origin, built originally of stakes, but reconstructed many times in timber and rubble. Although the lade is infilled, the site of the sluice gate at the S end of the caul can still be seen.
I Donnachie 1971.
