Transcriber's notes
SHIELING BURN- Dukes' Ho. refers to Duke's House, see OS1/10/44/89
- Brockett probably refers to "A Glossary of North Country Words, in Use: With Their Etymology, and Affinity to Other Languages ; and Occasional Notices of Local Customs and Popular Superstitions. By John Trotter Brockett, 1829", it does have the definition of Shiel and Shieling.
GLENMARCH-HOPE BURN - a table row was added, map reference 007 from Page 50 where another entry appears.
WANLOCK WATER
- One of the authors of the page uses 'comma' instead of 'apostrophe', I have transcribed as written.
