According to Gordon’s map Carnock Loch lay to the east of the kirk. Although Webster states that its exact site is no longer known (1938, 224), the contours suggest that it can only have lain on the Carnock Burn between Carnock and Gowkhall. For a detailed discussion of the dams in Carnock in the early eighteenth century, see Webster 1938, 222–28.
