| BOGS BURN | Boig's Burn Boig's Burn Boig's Burn |
Estate Plan George Young James Young |
006 | A small stream having its source on a small hill ΒΌ mile from whence it joins the Fingland and Loch Burns. Apparently this should be written Bog, although the old estate map gives "Boigs", but many inaccuracies occur therein. The stream runs through an old farm which was called The Bog, there is also a hill close at hand (& on the same old farm), which is now called Boghill. Local pronounciation is Bog, with the vowel sounded very long. |
| LOCH BURN | Loch Burn Loch Burn Loch Burn |
Estate Plan George Young James Young |
006; 013 | A large stream bearing this name from the junction of Boigs Burn and Fingland Burn, until it falls into the Mennock Water |
