013.08 | This name signifies the "big cap or "much"" - i.e woman's cap, and is so called, and very well known, from the part shewn within the dotted lines on Trace having the appearance of a woman's cap. It is a feature not easily recognised if not pointed out from a little distance above the top of it. "Currachd Mor" is a part, at that side, of the foot of the "Conic Hill". The portion of ground within the dots is a march or boundary between the farms of "Old Manse", and "Auchmar", and is, upon the authority of Mr W. McFarlane, Tenant, mentioned in the Leases of both Farms. |
