Kinneil Estate Short WalkKinneil Estate - long

This longer walk around Kinneil Estate follows the course of the Antonine Wall through scenic parkland, the east and west ponds and a roman fortlet.
(1500mts - 1mile)

This longer walk around Kinneil Estate offers many fine views and can be accessed from two points along Provost Road. 

A circular tour from Kinneil House, passing the east pond and on to view the remains of the Roman fortlet and then further to the west pond. The fortlet is marked out with wooden posts.

Follow the stone path at Kinneil Church and onto a mown grass path on the right. This is now the course of the Antonine Wall you are walking on.

There are seats spaced at regular intervals and help to provide a guide around the route.

The return leg from the west pond can be wet and rough ground during winter and wheelchair users should use caution before attempting this.

A reasonable stroll at 1500mts (1 mile) with most of the path from Kinneil House on grass. No gradients to speak of and no steps to overcome. Situated close by Bo'ness there are a variety of other sites of interest including the Bo'ness & Kinneil Railway, Birkhill Clay Mine, and a cycle route to South Queensferry along the coast road via Blackness and Hopetoun Estate.
