Transcriber's notes

It may be 3 rather than 8 tenements but the symbol is significantly different from the other entry on this page which is more clearly a 3.

There is a crossed out entry for "Burnbank Pit". The spelling authority is accredited to Messrs Rankin, Wylie and Stewart and the description reads

"An Iron & Limestone Pit
worked by steam. and
the property of Coltness Iron Co:"

Another crossed out entry for "Burnbank Quarry" . same three authorities and description

"A large opencast Ironstone
Quarry. property of the
Coltness Iron Co."
