Barfad Hill

An elongated whaleback in The Machars of Dumfries and Galloway, Barfad Hill rises to just beyond 105m (344 feet) on the edge of plantation forest, a half-mile (0.8 km) south of Loch Ronald and 4 miles (6.5 km) west northwest of Kirkcowan. This is one of a number of well-defined drumlins in this area, aligned NE-SW suggesting the direction of glacial flow. There is another summit called Barfad 2 miles (3 km) to the south southeast.
