The changing face of Kirkintilloch (Back o Loch, Woodilee)

A film showing some of the changes that have happened in recent years to parts of Kirkintilloch/Lenzie.

For the last 10 years at least, housing developments have spread throughout the town from the old hospital sites to former brown field sites and increased the expanse of the town. The entrances and exits to the town have changed too in the recent years with a new road linking the town centre at Townhead with The M80 motorway. Its a film to promote discussion as well as give those who've left the town decades ago to see their old homes and haunts as they are today.

The footage was created on a cold Sunday in January 2023 in between showers. All VLOS CAA regs were adhered to and as a drone operator I have my required certification to fly this and other UAV devices. The device used was a DJI mini 3 Pro drone (under 250g).

As always comments and discussion very welcome.

I much apologise for the early part of the video as the footage could be better focused. Im using a new drone and like all things new, im still learning how to use the features (including auto focus). This will be ironed out before the next release on my channel though.

Music for this video has been provided by the very talented Beatland. A Glasgow based electro act. I have linked at the end of the video to a video on the Beatland channel so you can sample even more of their work and hopefully subscribe both to my channel and beatlands channel.

Once again,

Thanks for watching and if you like what you see, give me a thumbs up to ensure more of this content is highlighted on Youtube.
