012.07 A few houses belonging to the Foundry of the same name, having come feued to the Monkland Iron & Steel Co. but all bearing the name. It is uncertain whether this long name, which is merely taken from the Foundry, should be written on Trace, or the name of the Foundry be written so as to apply to both. There is also a liability of confusion occuring owing to a village in Shotts near this- Trace 2.XII- 11. (Shotts) being at present confused with the name of "Cleland" , which upon the authorities quoted, was recently adopted by the Post Office authorities
