URPoint Details
Loch Neldricken is a loch in Galloway to the south-east of Merrick south of Craig Neldricken and west of Craignaw.
The loch is almost bisected by a long promontory. It drains via the short Mid Burn into Loch Valley and then via Gairland Burn down to Loch Trool.
An inlet at the west of the loch is marked on maps as 'Murder Hole', however the original 'Murder Hole' was a well on the Glen Trool to Straiton road where the bodies of travellers who had been robbed and murdered were dumped.
