The Orion Bridge in Cambuslang was built to connect Cambuslang to Tollcross. It was designed by Crouch and Hogg and features steel lattice trusses supported by masonry piers. It was initially linked to the nearby Clydebridge Steel Works. Though bypassed in the 1970s due to increasing traffic loads, it still serves local traffic today.

Lochend Loch

Highlight • Natural

Set in the beautiful Drumpellier Park, Lochend Loch is one of two natural lochs here. With a number of light gravel paths through the woodland and around the lochs it's a lovely place to while away a few hours, with plenty of wildlife to spot too. Keep your eyes open for resident and migratory waterfowl, as well as fungi in the autumn months.

Body felt much better today, bike not so much... ominous squeak coming from somewhere 🐭
Followed the NCR75 east (apparently I WASN'T lost that time I got soaked at bargeddie) then turned off at the murkiest scummiest canal I've ever seen in my puff, absolutely full of green goop, then I had to push through some proper woodland trails for …
