Lennoxtown

The town of Lennoxtown in Dunbartonshire, Scotland lies in a picturesque setting at the base of the magnificent Campsie Fells range of hills that reach east to west, from Denny Muir to Dumgoyne in East Dunbartonshire. Lennoxtown has been a thriving mill town with the busy Lennox Mill grinding the corn for tenants of the Woodhead estate and there were several corn mills within the area.
