Ordnance Survey - Midlothian county, OS Name Books - Midlothian county - Volume 26 - Parish of West Calder, OS1/11/26

Continued entries/extra info

A double-headed arrow points to/from bridge* [asterisked by me] to a note in another hand (the same as in a previous added entry) reading:
'At this Bridge the Stream changes its name from Bog Burn to [Linhouse scored out] Muriston [sic] Water' with [?] 'Inpap 22' underneath and initialled almost illegibly [A.M.O?] under that.

Transcriber's notes

Note that the List of Names column has what appears to be Cairnyhole below Canniehole.
Lower down it has Annets Croft Bridge, with Croft scored out and replaced by Cross, and this is repeated in the Other modes column.
There is no NEWLANDS on this page, nor is the name known in the parish: see Kirknewton???
