Transcriber's notes
Note that in the Orthography column Harwood has been scored out and replaced with Hartwood Mains.
Again the binding has obscured some words. I have taken Hartwood to have both an ornamental and a kitchen garden; the last part of 'large' may be open to other interpretations.

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.
