Dykebar, Paisley : ウィキペディア英語版 | Dykebar
Dykebar is a small residential estate at the southernmost point of Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland. It is situated next to the Hawkhead area approximately one half kilometre from Barrhead, and is home to Paisley's secured mental hospital. Dykebar is a primarily residential area 1.8miles/3 km south east of Paisley off the A726. The area remained rural until after World War II. Map references to Dykebar date back from at least 1596 until after 1640. ==Dykebar Hill==
Dykebar Hill, at 168 feet / 58 metres, is the highest point in the area. Access to the summit is possible opposite a small car park near the end of Glenapp Avenue. By 1800 the hill was Dikebar, and remained such until the start of the 20th century when the old spelling of Dykebar returned. An archaeological evaluation of the hill was undertaken in February and March 2004 on the site of proposed residential development. Evidence of a medieval defensive work, 18th-century circular landscape features and WW2 anti-aircraft defences were discovered including an intact bunker-like structure and the brick walls and concrete floors of other buildings. The battery was armed with four 3.7-inch guns.
