Transcriber's notes
Note that in the List of Names column Hay Mains is scored out beneath Haymains.
Once again the binding obscures some of the right-hand words in the Descriptive Remarks column: they can be easily guessed.
The same remarks also apply to Bents, below it on the original page, with Bent scored out in the first column, and one word in the Descriptive Remarks column slightly unsure.

Ordnance Survey - Midlothian 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 Midlothian, which is in the east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
