THE REDEVELOPMENT OF FARMLAND.
This map shows the extent of the farmland around Dreghorn village which made way for housing at Leggat, Glebelands, Annickbank and Townend.
The plantation around Greenwood farm has become a mix of housing, Greenwood Academy and industrial units. Roseholm is now the site of Riverside Lodge.
Left: The farmhouse at Leggat, now 12 Main Street, is the base of operations for R&A Muir Haulage.
Below: Townend Community Centre at 15 Townfoot, Dreghorn. The farmhouse, courtyard and barn area were all redeveloped in the 1970s.
