Transcriber's notes
[Entry Scored Out/Incomplete]: Herrington HolmList of Names - Pickbone Well - written underneath is 'E margin'
Descriptive Remarks - Pickbone Well - 'water' is largely hidden by the page fold and 'Rockhall' is missing the last two letters
Descriptive Remarks - Aefur Brae - the page fold is obscuring words - best guesses added. Check 'roied'? would expect it to be 'taken' or 'derived'
Aefur Brae (OS1/10/10/70) is - 'A ridge of high land'
