Transcriber's notes
West Raffles - Descriptive Remarks - Can't tell if it is outbuilding or outbuildings - outbuildings assumed since there is no 'an' or 'one' in frontBucanan corrected to Buchanan in OS1/10/41/60
East Raffles - Descriptive Remarks - check name of owner - misspelt Forsyth? (see E106/12/5/97 - Land tax rolls for Dumfriesshire, 1827 - PHILIP FORSYTH of Raffles)
