The settlement is situated on the A71, between Caldermill and Priestland in East Ayrshire at an elevation of 197 metres (646 feet) and about five miles (eight kilometres) west of Strathaven.

[2] Thomas Carlyle visited the battlefield in April 1820 and wrote a description of the "flat wilderness of broken bog, a quagmire not to be trusted".

[3] At the nearby hamlet of Caldermill the Trumpeter's Well is located that is named after a government soldier who was killed and buried at the site in the aftermath of the battle.

It was designed by J McLellan Fairley in a Gothic-style with a square tower crowned with an octagonal copper covered spire.

[5] The stone's inscription reads "In commemoration of the victory obtained on this battlefield, on Sabbath the 11th June 1679, by our Covenanted forefathers over Graham of Claverhouse and his dragoons.

The plaque on the wall reads "On the battlefield of Drumclog, this Seminary of Education was erected, in memory of those Christian Heroes, who on Sabath the 1st of June 1679 nobly fought, in defence of Civil and Religious Liberty".

[9] Hill of Drumclogg and Laigh Crumclogg are shown together some un-named buildings and with Snaid recorded on the predecessor to the A71, the Ayr to Edinburgh by Haamilton and Kirk of Shotts Road.

[10] Ross's 1773 map shows Drumclog to the north of the Ayr to Edinburgh road with the inaccurate note 'Clevers fought a battle 1684'.
