| CAT STANES | Cat Stanes | John Williamson, Simon Carruthers (Elvanfoot), William Templeton (Leadburn). | 050 | A name given to a few croppy rocks at the N.E. side of Lousie Wood Law. This name would lead to the supposition that this was the site of some ancient conflict, as the word Cad or Cath (pronounced cat) implies, but there is no tradition to that effect in the neighbourhood. |
| DEAD SIDE | Dead Side | Estate Plan (Barony of Hopetoun), John Gill. | 050 | A name which applies to the south end of Whatchman Hill. |
| WATCHMAN HILL | Watchman Hill | John Williamson, Simon Carruthers, William Templeton, Thomas Todd (Bodsberry). | 050 | A fine large hill with a ridge summit near to Elvanfoot on the farm of Glengeith. |
