Layre


A location in southwest Scotland, probably in the country of Galloway.

After Sir Galleron and Sir Gawain fought each other to a draw, Gawain, in admiration, gave all the lands “from Laner to Layre” to Galleron.

The lands had originally belonged to Galleron and were annexed by Arthur and given to Gawain.
