[continuation of Description] - In the new Stat. Acct. [Statistical Account] of Kirkcudbrightshire is the following notice. -
"No vestiges of the old church of Kirkennan now remains though the place where it stood is still
"pointed out. About 70 years ago when digging the ground around it handles of coffins and fragments
"of human bones were discovered. This burying ground has long been subjected to the plough; it probably
"ceased to be used as a place of interment when the church was removed to Buittle and a bury-ground was
"established there. No Monuments or grave stones were erected at Kirkennan at least no fragments of any such
"memorials now remain; perhaps at a remote period there were not erected in country parishes." |

[Situation] Forming the boundary between the parish of Urr & Buittle
A considerable Stream or burn having its source in Loch Urr and running in an Easterly direction to its influx with the Solway Frith, it receives in its course many tributaries all inconsiderable except Kirkgunzeon Lane which has a run of 10 or 11 Miles. The Urr with the exception of where it cut of a small portion of the parish of Urr, is throughout a boundary line, leaving Kirkpatrick Durham, Colvend and Urr on the East Balmaclellan, Parton Cross Michael and Buittle on the West, About 4 1/4 Miles before its influx with the Solway, it begins to expand into an estuary, and at its embouchure between Hestan Island and a Headland on the East, It has a breadth of nearly two miles, It is navigable to the Dub of Hass at Dalbeattie for considerable craft for 3 Miles above its incipient expansion or 7 miles above its embouchure. In Wet Seasons it abounds with Salmon of which considerable numbers are caught, but in dry seasons they can get little higher than the flow of the tide. |

Dear Gosset
You promised some time ago to send me the [5 ft.] plan of Dumfries mounted but as you may have forgotten it in the pressure of business if you will send me the unmounted sheets I will put them together here. - A good many people have been inquiring about it and I think some copies would sell, I have shown the original |

manuscript plans to a good many of the Dumfriesians. - Mr. Maxwell of Munches also told me he had sent some of the published sheets of Kirkcudbright to O.S.N.O. some months since in which he had marked what he thought were errors, and as he has heard nothing more about them I conclude they were probably put on one side and forgotten, I told him you had more to do than you could well get through. - It is the peoples own fault they take no interest in the survey when it is going on and when it is all finished they begin to find mistakes in names &c. - Believe me
ever yrs. [yours] truly

Dear Sir
I am in receipt of your letter of the 30 ult. inclosing two sheets of the Survey of the Stewartry - I have gone carefully over these sheets and submitted them to Mr. McKnight of Barlochan who has made Several remarks in Pencil which I believe to be correct. They are,
1. The Site of Kirkennan Church in wrong field -
2 For Bogles Creek read Garden Creek -
3 Palnackie Post office marked to wrong House -
4 Deil's Reach should be more to the West -
5 Tartillyan in Colvend, should be Tarlillyan -
I have made the following corrections in Red Ink -
Parish of Urr.
6 For Stubslap read Stubligget
7 For Kirkclough read Kirkclaugh. (In two places)
8 For quarries read Old Land quarries
9 For Gally read Galla |

10 At Meikle Dalbeattie is no Quarry. only Some Rock from which occasionally a few Stones have been split -
Parish of Buittle
11 For Buittle Bridge read Craignair Bridge -
12 Redweil is in Urr Parish alone -
13 There is no Foot Bridge to Coalhole - It is a common Pend over a ditch used for Carts -
14 The Quarries at Broomisle are Gravel Pits -
15 Craigterra Rock omitted -
The following points would seem to require explanation or further inquiry -
16 At Colvend Church you mark a Grave yard but you omit it at Southwick old church & at
16a Urr church. Why is this?
17 Dalbeattie Quay is on the North side of the River not the South -
18 The Bridge at Stepend is only a Foot Bridge -
19 Are the Marches of the Parishes of Buittle & Urr correctly laid down at Forth head and Moat of Urr?
20 Gibbs Hole at the Mouth of the Urr seems omitted, but it may be in the next sheet -
21 If the names of all houses are given, there are 6 or 7 Cottages on the Estate of Munches |

Ordnance Survey Office
Dumfries 26th May 1853.
Sir,
I returned from Gatehouse last night. On my way back I called on Mr. Maxwell of Munches and found him exceedingly courteous. He talked with me about the Survey for nearly an hour and seemed decidedly favourable to it and said he knew of no errors to refer me to. I shewed him the Gatehouse Sheet &c. In reference to the question about errors he mentioned that he had heard Mr. Muir Writer &c Kirkcudbright say that some names were incorrect - probably only supposed incorrect by Mr. Muir -
Mr. Maxwell said that if you would send him a Sheet or two of his neighbourhood he would gladly examine the names and return the Sheets with any remarks he might have to offer - he also said that he would be glad to have a small index showing the parts contoured and published. The
Captain Gosset R.E. [Royal Engineers]
Lord Selkirk's factor -
Did we not refer all Lords' names to his Lordship
Yes, and names that were sanctioned both by the East and W. [West] Muir, are now objected to by the same Parties. R -

The Police Commissioners of Gatehouse wish you to have the goodness to inform Mr.McKinn their Clerk &c the cast of a plan of their Burgh on a Scale of 24 inches to a mile and on a scale of 5 ft. to a mile -
By the act of Parliament they should provide themselves with a plan on a scale not less than 5 ft. to a mile and they wish to obey the Act if possible - Could not a good 5 ft. olan be given them from the Six Inch Survey with a very careful examination -
