County of Ross -- Six Inch Sheet 116 -- page101Transcriber's notes
Meall Loch Airidh Alasdair is wrongly translated by the surveyor as the "Hill of the Lake of Alexander's Shieling" - it should be "Alasdair's Sheiling" Similarly Loch Airidh Alasdair should be the "Loch of Alasdair's Shieling"Transcribers who have contributed to this page.
