Transcriber's notes

In Descriptive remarks for "Creag Sgoilte nan Dà Bheinn" the abbreviation "do" is presumed to refer to the name "Ben Adin".
In Descriptive remarks the word "Adin" has been misspelt and should be "Aden", which appears on the OS map.
On this page the surveyor has "diittoed" the name of one Authorising signatory to both versions of name instead of applying two Authorising signatories.
