I've had to comment just how happy your work has made me. I'm a brazilian living in Paisley for over 3 years and I feel so much love for this town, to the point I started getting mildly upset when I hear people talking about Paisley like it's a bad place. I walk around Paisley admiring it's history and architecture, how nice the people in this Town are, and I always wanted to learn more. Thank you for your work, I appreciate it 😊
Ah, the Craigie. My auld stomping ground when I was growing up in Barrhead, and a place I still visit when I get the chance. There's another, steeper path that leads up the front of the fort. The way you ascended is the way we usually descend. What's funny is that I'm living right next to Saucel Hill at the moment, and I randomly came across your video. Great video btw. Thank you!
Great video cycled up, well walked that bit,Stoney Brae in October thankyou for the info. Shame they were allowed to build on the old Paisley uni recreation grounds. As to the monument perhaps the council spent all the Art funds on the Rain sculpture that graced county square for a couple of years. I cannot find much info on that master peice I wonder why?😊
Ah, you poor, hard-done by fellow. So you had a windy day, well consider the lot of the Ordance engineers who had to manhandle that trig point manually from the nearest access point - and in one piece. This was when it was decided to replace the previous cairns, etc which had been used before with one standard monolith These were pre-built and in some cases had to be installed as far as 10 m (30+ ft) into the ground. What we see today is just the tip of the iceberg for want of a better analogy. Contemplate how many other engineers have seen the view from The Craigie to Saucel Hill, over the decades since.
Great video.
Thank you. 🙏🏽

Hello from Nethercraigs Court. 👋🏻
Straight away, I knew that it was the Craigie.

Not much of a mystery hill if it has a trig point on it.
