Subject: RE: BS: Welsh pronunciation & other Welsh stuff
In the nineteenth ane early twentieth century there was a climbing club in the Peak District called the Kyndwr Club - I wonder if that was from an old Welsh version of Kinder? It would mean something like "In front of the water" or maybe "the water at the front" which would correspond with Kinder Downfall, a superb waterfall dropping from the Kinder Plateau.
