Transcriber's notes
List of Names as written - 'THE PEEL' and 'Site of TOWER [The Peel]' were pre-entered. However, there is only one entry, so I have merged these keeping the word order that is written on p.133 (& map 30) and bracketed exactly as it appears on the map.- written above 'The Peel' is the word 'alter'
- Descriptive Remarks - check 2nd last line - 3rd word should be 'on' but looks more like 'an'
