Sh. [Sheet] 69. Torr na Sithinn Wood 1st [first] Col [Column] O.N.Bk [Ordnance Name Book]
Tornashien Wood 2nd [second] Col [Column] O.N.Bk [Ordnance Name Book]
Sìthean is generally used in names as a mas. [masculine] noun
but in this instance as a fem. [feminine] noun.
Torr na Sithinn Wood (Wood of the Knoll of the Venison)
but the accent not used in this form.
Sithionn (venison) Sithinn gen. [genitive] sing. [singular].
Sìthean (fairy knoll) Sìthein gen. [genitive] sing. [singular].
Tornashien Wood as in 2nd [second] Col [Column] is preferable
as the origin of the name is obscure.
