Extract

Throughout Lanarkshire and Renfrewshire many streams and rivulets have beds which are deep reddish-brown in colour. This colour is due to the deposition of ferric hydroxide, and in some cases the deposition is so great that the course of the stream (if a small one) is hindered, and therefore it must be periodically cleared.
