Extract

Towards the end of January, 1937, an interesting discovery X was made at the sandpit belonging to the Headswood Sand and Gravel Company. The sandpit lies a little north of the point where the road from Larbert (Stirlingshire) forks for Dennyloanhead in the one direction, and Denny and Dunipace in the other. It is located immediately west of Headswood Farm, Stirlingshire (O.S. Sh. 24 S.W. 6 in. to 1 mile).
