The signifigance of the name Kelvinhead passed me by when I was there. This is not just the upper reaches of one of Glasgow's famous rivers, but the east - west watershed of Scotland. Strictly speaking this field is just west of the watershed, but I expect Dave Hewitt and those who followed him doing the epic walk would have used the road to Banton beside this field.
