Whinny Hill Woodland

A waymarked route, its outlying part in the form of a loop, has been created through this area of woodland. The spelling "Whinny Hill" is the one found on older maps, and it reflects the probable meaning, which is simply a hill covered in whin (gorse). Note, though, that the Woodland Trust (Scotland) tend to call it Whinney Hill; that form of the name also occurs on more recent mapping. Those looking for more information should therefore be aware of the alternative spelling.
