Transcriber's notes
CAIRNS [Ormaig]: in the Name Book this is not a separate entry but rather part of the Standing Stone entry. I have been unable to locate either feature near Ormaig on Sheet 138. The Index has one entry for each without specifying the location. Found at Kintraw on sheet 138 [just north of Creag nam Fitheach] : one standing stone and four cairns are marked and named separately [although close together].Transcribers who have contributed to this page.
