Transcriber's notes
SHIELING KNOWE- a link is made between the Name, the Various Modes and the explanation for Shieling versus Shielan.
- Private Munro appears to write UZIESIDE instead of ULZIESIDE in Descriptive Remarks, he also does this elsewhere.
The following entries have been struck out with the comments:
Shieling Moss:
This Name from the close proximity of the object to Shieling Knowe has been thought superfluous.-
Small Burn:
A Name not generally recognised.-
