Transcriber's notes

An entry for "Small Burn" has been struck out, no reason given.

LITTLE HILL
- Authorities are assigned to Little Hill by a bracket, I have transcribed as if 'ditto'.

Dear Moderator, re EUCHAN WATER
- should the Situation map references be 006; 012; 013 and not 6; 12; 13 as presented here, I have left as is but happy to change this and the others for EUCHAN WATER if required?
