Caldwell Law is a prominent hill located in Renfrewshire, Scotland. Situated near the town of Uplawmoor, it stands at an elevation of approximately 324 meters (1,063 feet) above sea level. The hill is part of the larger Caldwell Estate, which encompasses a vast area of agricultural land and woodland.

The summit of Caldwell Law offers breathtaking panoramic views of the surrounding countryside. On a clear day, visitors can enjoy vistas that stretch as far as the Isle of Arran, the Firth of Clyde, and even the Trossachs National Park. The hill is a popular destination for hikers and nature enthusiasts who appreciate its natural beauty and tranquil atmosphere.

Caldwell Law also holds historical significance. In the past, it served as a site for defensive fortifications and was occupied by the Romans during their conquest of Scotland. The remnants of these ancient fortifications can still be seen today, adding an air of intrigue and historical charm to the area.

The hill is easily accessible via a network of well-maintained footpaths, making it a popular spot for outdoor activities such as walking, hiking, and birdwatching. The surrounding Caldwell Estate offers additional recreational opportunities, including fishing, shooting, and horse riding.

Caldwell Law is not only a natural and historical landmark but also an important part of the local community. Its beauty and accessibility make it a cherished destination for both locals and tourists alike.

Site of Caldwell - later Uplawmoor, station This is the former Glasgow, Barrhead & Kilmarnock (later Glasgow & South-Western) line from Glasgow St Enoch, later from Glasgow Central - and by 1986 single-track, to Kilmarnock and Carlisle. Until 2/4/62 Caldwell was named 'Uplawmoor'; it was closed on 7/11/66 - after having been portrayed on TV as 'Tannochbrae' in 'Dr Finlay's Casebook'. The water ahead is Loch Libo.
