Loch Hill

An oval summit surrounded by plantation forest in the W of Dumfries and Galloway, Loch Hill rises to 93m (305 feet) a quarter-mile (0.5 km) north of Whitefield Loch and a half-mile (0.8 km) south of Craigenveoch Fell. This is one of a number of drumlins in The Machars, deposited beneath an ancient ice sheet which covered the area, and its principal axis is orientated NNE-SSW indicating the direction of flow. There is another Loch Hill 7½ miles (12 km) to the east southeast.
