Parish of Strathdon
[Note beside 'Moss of Maol-Charrach']
Maol. The brow of a rock.
Maol. Make Blunt. Bald or bare (Gaelic)
Maol-Charrach (The bare shaggy ground)
[Maol-Charrach] This is very doubtful. Meil is generally = meal.
Charrach I suspect must go with Tom a Charraigh & perhaps Forbrigs.
Is it possible that the "Gutcher Stone" has suggested all these names?
I can only ask the question, but would give the name Moss of Mulcharrach. [Initialled] JMcD.

Ordnance Survey - Aberdeen county
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Aberdeen, which is in the north east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
