Transcriber's notes
This surveyor writes 'u' and 'w' somewhat ambiguously and interchangeably. Hence Carlwke in the first four entries.
Line 15: "John Reid Hillfield" [sic] perh. for John Reid of Nellfield, who is, around the period of the Assessment, listed as the proprietor of the lands of Nellfield, Harestanes and Pyethall in the parish of Carluke. He signed a Trust Deed dated 5 Aug 1812 (Notices Historical, Statistical & Biographical Relating to the Parish of Carluke, pp154-6,255-6; NRS ref. CS237/W/8/118).

Scottish Exchequer (Tax Records)
The Scottish Exchequer, and subsequently the Court of Exchequer, were concerned with the accounting of collected taxes in Scotland. These taxes include the Carriage tax (1785-1798), Cart tax (1785-1798), Clock and watch tax (1797-1798), Dog tax (1797-1798), Farm horse tax (1797-1798), Servant tax (1777-1798), Hearth tax (1691-1695), Horse tax (1785-1798), Inhabited house tax (1778-1798), Land tax (1645-1831), Poll tax (1694-1698), Shop tax (1785-1789), Window tax (1748-1798). Following the Consolidating Acts (38 Geo. III cap. 40 and 41), the duties on windows, inhabited houses, male servants, carts, carriages and dogs were incorporated in Consolidated Schedules of Assessed Taxes (1798-1799).
