Transcriber's notes
The Teatle Water also appears on Sheets CII [102] & CXIV [114].There were two prepopulated entries on this page for the one feature: "FORT [Tom a' Chaisteil]" & "TOM A' CHAISTEIL", both versions appear in the Index. I have preserved the former as it follows the format on Sheet 101 and on the original page.
