Transcriber's notes
'Description remarks' for "Knoch Hungavat" end after the word "Signification". As "Hungavat" itself does not translate (there is no attempt made to translate it in the separate entry for "Loch Hungavat"), I have completed the last sentence here simply by suggesting that the signification would be "Hungavat Knoll".Similarly, there is an indistinct word in the 'Description remarks' for "Loch Tergavat", which reads "Signification "The [illegible] spot loch". The illegible word is at most three letters long and the only possible word from the shapes of the letters written would appear to be "eel".
