Old Horseshoe Linn
Old Horseshoe Linn
Old Horseshoe Linn is a waterfall on the Rotten Calder, a river flowing east of East Kilbride in South Lanarkshire, Scotland.
It is one of several notable falls along this stretch of river, which also includes Horseshoe Falls nearby, as well as Millwell Linn, Flatt Linn, Torrance Linn, and others that punctuate the Rotten Calder's course through its gorge.
The Rotten Calder gorge has long been celebrated for its romantic grandeur, with lush ivy-clad crags that inspired writers and poets in the 18th and 19th centuries.
Old Horseshoe Linn sits within this scenic corridor, part of a river system managed in part through the Calderglen country park area.
