geography
The Black Cart Water drains from the north end of Castle Semple Loch in the Renfrewshire Council Area . The river follows a north-easterly direction over its entire length of about 14.5 km. After three kilometers it passes the village of Howwood and then separates the towns of Johnstone and Kilbarchan from each other. Passing Linwood in the east, the White Cart Water receives its main tributary a short distance northeast with the Gryfe Water . The Black Cart Water borders Glasgow Airport to the west and flows 3.5 km below the confluence of the Gryfe at Renfrew with the White Cart Water to form the Cart . After a few hundred meters this flows into the Clyde .
