Transcriber's notes
The entry for 'Coire Càs' was not pre-populated. It is in the Index for this page but is not listed in the associated names for Sheet 89. It is however printed on the map so I have transcribed it here.The allocation of 'Sron an Aonaich' to Sheet 74 is wrong since it does not appear on that map.
Cannot make sense of the second part of the Gaelic meaning for Sron an Aonaich. Not so in dictionary.
