Sh. [Sheet] 69. Carndubh 1st col [first column] O.N. Bk [Ordnance Name Book]
Cairndhu Hill 2nd col [second column] O.N. Bk [Ordnance Name Book]
If Hill is to be retained I would suggest
Carndhu Hill. I am of opinion
that Hill crept into this name later on and
that Càrn Dubh in two words is the original
name.

Sh. [Sheet] 69. Càrn Fiaclach 1st col [first column] O.N. Bk [Ordnance Name Book]
The name in 1st Col [first Column] is good enough.
See above remark.

Sh. [Sheet] 69. Meikle Sgroilleach Hill
See notes in pencil on 69 page 192 of this
book. Not being on the ground I cannot
suggest a spelling different to those given.

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.
