The South Calder Water, known locally as "The Cawder", or simply "Calder", is a river in Scotland. It runs west from the high plateau between Shotts^[1] and Fauldhouse to its joining with the much larger River Clyde.

The high plateau is also the watershed of the River Almond, which flows east into the River Forth.
