Transcriber's notes

The title 'Trace' number has '2' overwritten with a 'c'

Descriptive Remarks - Shaw Burn - 'name' is largely hidden by the page fold

Various modes of Spelling - Oxgang Bridge - I have repeated '(County)' on each line - not sure if that was the writer's intention or not.
Descriptive Remarks - Oxgang Bridge - 'Dumfries' and 'repaired' are substantially hidden by the page fold

Descriptive Remarks - Dovecot - 'A' is almost completely hidden by the page fold. Only 'former' is visible - assumed to be 'formerly a'
