Before that access was impossible, because the Glen was on private land. Towards the end of 18C, however, on a point of principle, the local landowner John McFarlan of Ballencleroch opened up part of the glen for the recreation of local workpeople. It soon became well known and well-visited. Throughout 19C and well into 20C, large numbers of organised trips descended upon the Glen by road and rail.
