Hawkhead (, (スコットランド・ゲール語:Ceann an Dail))〔(List of railway station names in English, Scots and Gaelic – NewsNetScotland )〕 is an area near Paisley in Renfrewshire, Scotland. It is the location of Hawkhead railway station on the Paisley Canal Line. It is near Dykebar. The former Hawkhead hospital for infectious diseases, which is now being converted to flats in a development called Hawkhead Village, was designed by the modernist architect Thomas S. Tait. The area's name is recorded as Halkhead in some older maps and in the historical title of Lord Ross of Halkhead == Lord Ross of Halkhead == The 12th Lord Ross of Halkhead (died 15 March 1738 at age 82) was a British peer. He resided principally at Hawkhead House, taking an active interest in county affairs even when advanced in years; and died there. He strongly advocated the Union of the Parliaments, and was chosen one of the Representative Peers in 1715, and appointed Lieutenant of Renfrewshire at the same time. His son George was the thirteenth, and last, Lord Ross. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Hawkhead」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
