013.03 | This name applies to the very pinnacle at the north western extremity of that top within the yellow dotted lines shewn on Trace. All within that shewn as a level top, or the highest even part of the hill, ascend to the pinnacle, or on the contrary falls from the point described, at the north western top, to the surrounding dots enclosing the best level of the feature. The descent from the top shewn by the yellow dots, on all sides, is regular. The Name can't be better applied than as it is upon the Trace - i.e. along the western top, which is higher than the eastern. The point of "Tom Soilleir" cannot be defined on the south & east sides as it falls too abruptly from the western top. This name is well known. |
