[Notes to Dùn Rònachain]
Dùn Ronachan is written on Plan to a hill
& not to a fort as here described
Dùn Rònachain "Hill resembling a Seal" - The Gaelic form for this
name has been retained, the same in reference to
the "burn", but it would be imprudent to adopt
any other spelling than that given by the
Authorities for "Ronachan Point", Ronachan Bay,
&c. [Initialled] R.H.
