River Garnock : ウィキペディア英語版 | River Garnock
The River Garnock ((スコットランド・ゲール語:Gairneag / Abhainn Ghairneig)), the smallest of Ayrshire's six principal rivers,〔("River Garnock" ). Ayrshire Rivers Trust. Retrieved 13 May 2013.〕 has its source on the southerly side of the Hill of Stake in the heart of the Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park. About a mile and a half south of this starting point the untested stream tumbles over the Spout of Garnock, the highest waterfall in Ayrshire, once thought to be the river's origin. The river then continues, for a total length of or so, through the towns of Kilbirnie, Glengarnock, Dalry and Kilwinning to its confluence with the River Irvine at Irvine Harbour. The main tributaries are the Rye Water and Caaf Water which join north and south of Dalry respectively and the Lugton Water which joins just south of Kilwinning.
