Kippford (otherwise Scaur〔(Kippford ), Gazetteer for Scotland〕) is a small village along the Solway coast, in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. ==Geography== Kippford stretches along the banks of the Urr estuary and in places is only one house wide, being hemmed in between the forested Mark hill (locally known as the ''Muckle'') and the sea. Kippford can only be accessed by car from Barnbarroch, passing by Craigieknowes Golf Course and two campsites. Kippford is also linked to Rockcliffe by a scenic track, known as the Jubilee footpath, which passes parallel to the coast (and the village of Kippford) but at a higher elevation. The path can be used to access Mark hill and the Mote of Mark, a 5th-century hill fort. Visitors may cross the sands to a small island called Rough Island when the tide allows. Views from Kippford include the English Lake District coast across the Solway Firth to the South. To the West can be seen Glen Isle and Screel in the background. 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「Kippford」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
