Valuation Roll T Allan, Westerwood William Chalmers. Arniebog William Gibson Cumbernauld James Forrester Tollpark |
020 | A marshy portion of ground on the lands of Arniebog, which is, in summer, drained & produces rough or coarse hay. In winter it is dammed for a curling pond by an artificial embankment on its south side near a little house for holding Curling Stones. (Trace 5) At the present time - June. during a very dry season, it is a wet marshy tract. Whatever may have been the origin of this name the manner of using it is as Authorized. An unimportant Knowe as sketched on Trace or hill stands upon the north side of "Loch Bar", and is, like parks generally, having hills or Knowes in them, named : but this hill as "Loch Bar Hill" has been taken from the Loch, and does not appear to more than a name given to it from being near the Loch. "Loch Bar" is a well Known name & is also given to a Quarry near - on Trace 5. |
