Sheet 191 Argyllshire

[Creag nan Gobhar Mhor] The form Creag nan Gobhar Mòr is
very objectionable it ought to be Creag
Mhòr nan Gobhar. The two hills being so near each the people will
speak of them as Creagan nan Gobhar but when written the names
separately on a map the adjective ought to be placed after the noun
to which it refers
To be corrected on Plan
