Crescent Road (continued)
the Proprietor from whom the ground occupied by the Villas on both sides of it, is feued & is kept in repair by both the original Proprietor & Feuars, to whom it is Public. ( Described on the Trace as "Road Public to Feuars)."Crescent Road" is a new name, but one, the superiority of the villas & cottages on its sides, that is strictly used by the Feuars, & well known to the people of the village of Bothwell and its neighborhood. Town Cottages bearing their respective names on the gates of each, at the east end of this Road, have been numbered on Trace, but the names not written from their closeness to each other, as well as bthe name of the Road ("Crescent") applying to them all, which may, perhaps, serve all the purposes required & prevent names of very doubtful permanence confusing the detail.
The following are the names referring to the cottages numbered. Viz.
No. 1 " Victoria Cottage"
No.2 "Caledonia Cottage"
No. 3 "Balmoral Cottage"
No.4 Strathclyde Cottage"
These from being named on the Gates are as well known as the other villas in "Crescent Road", & can if necessary be authorized.
