Transcriber's notes

Glen Liver, described as "extending from Eilean Liver (139/1) to Loch a Bhruic (138/0)" Eilean Liver is indeed on Sheet 139 but Lochan a' Bruic is on Sheet 131 being at the northern extremity of the Glen... not sure what 138 refers to...

Monadh Meadhonach described as "extending from Creag Dubh south 138/14": Creag Dubh is here on Sheet 131 - the 138 must refer to coordinates? & the sheet number of Eilean Liver was just a coincidence?
