014.01 | "Gualann", Signifying mountain projection, is the highest hill in the eastern part of the Parish excepting "Conic Hill" to the south-west of it. The water shedding of this hill is the Parish Boundary, but the larger portion, of which the name is chiefly descriptive is in the adjoining Parish of Drymen. The bottom of this hill is, in Buchanan on the south & east, bounded by the Dyke enclosing the Muir Park. The Revd. Dr. [Reverend Doctor] McFarlane considers the name should be spelt as given upon his authority in the column for "various modes of spelling" &c. The other authorities given merly identify the name with the object. |
