editNote that the alternative spelling of "ghyll" was introduced by the Lakes poets: Wordsworth, Southey et al. Presumable as some form of affectation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by REWightman (talk • contribs) 07:18, 4 March 2014 (UTC)

editA gill is the headwater valley/gully of a stream, not the stream itself; it'd be tautological to say 'Carlin Gill Valley'.
