Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Old Glasgow and Suburbs in Their Celtic Garb: Also Parish of Baldernock, Kirkintilloch to Stirling, Robroyston
The Irish Gaelic, with a circular stone fort additional, means much the same, Whilst the Welsh and Cornisli C aer stands for a city or town. The Welsh Cadar and C ader Speak only of defence, such as hill forts, strongholds, etc. The supposed Welsh form of the word, viz. - Cader-is, slightly differs, however, from the Scoto Irish Gaelic Ka har-ish, in that its affix is is an adjective meaning low or lower. Thus we get from the Welsh the low or lower hill-fort.
