Rodger Law

Rising to 541 metres in the Culter Hills south of Edinburgh, this grassy dome offers a straightforward ascent through typical Southern Upland terrain. The summit provides wide views across the rolling hill country, with Tinto's distinctive cone visible to the southwest and the Lowther Hills stretching along the southern horizon.

• •The name 'Rodger Law' combines a surname with the Scots 'law', meaning a rounded hill, a term common across the Southern Uplands derived from Old English 'hlāw' originally denoting a burial mound or prominent rise.
• •The hill forms part of the Culter Hills group, a compact range of grassy moorland summits lying between the Clyde Valley and Biggar Water, often walked as a circuit from the minor road over Culter Fell.
• •Despite its modest height, Rodger Law qualifies for three separate hill classifications—Dodd, Donald Dewey, and Tump—making it a useful tick for peak-baggers working through the lower Scottish lists.
