[Note beside 'Buxburn'] - This mode of writing a burn-name is departing from the usual practice but if disjoined it would, for the sake of sense, require to be Bucks Burn as it was originally. It is a question for the O.S. [Ordnance Survey] Office to determine.

I see "The Cairngorm Club" (mountaineering) in their Magazine in the same Art. [Article] use Buxburn for the placename & Bucks Burn for the burn name.
