Names that other countries have for this feature:
A tributary glacier entering the west side of the Beardmore Glacier between Mt Adams and the Marshall Mountains. This glacier was named Berwick Glacier by the BAE, 1907-09, but a subsequent cartographic error exchanging the positions of the Berwick and Swinford Glaciers on the charts of the BAE, 1910-13, has caused the name Swinford to become well established for this glacier. The Berwick Glacier lies about 10 miles south-west of Swinford Glacier. Shackleton's eldest son was named Raymond Swinford.
