River Calder, Renfrewshire

River Calder, Renfrewshire

The River Calder is a river mainly within Renfrewshire, Scotland, UK.

The river rises in the hills to the east of the county and for some of its length forms the border between Renfrewshire and its neighbouring council areas of North Ayrshire and Inverclyde. The only significant settlement which the river runs through is Lochwinnoch, before flowing into the nearby Castle Semple Loch [http://www.clydemuirshiel.co.uk/downloads/Castle%20Semple%20Loch%20History%20&%20Hydrology.pdf] [ [http://www.visionofbritain.org.uk/descriptions/entry_page.jsp;jsessionid=8D89806B61F0A91CBAC0DD4749395848?text_id=138450&word=NULL Vision of Britain | Groome Gazetteer entry for RENFREWSHIRE ] ] which drains into the Black Cart Water.
