030 | [situation] ⅜ Mile S. [South] of Lochornie. A long ridge the surface of which is arable partly planted chiefly lying in the Parish of Beath and on the estate of Lassodie. Proprietor James Dewar Esquire. This name is pronounced to rhyme with Foyle - moyle etc. (see the name Lochgoilhead). Drumaguile is the local way of naming it, and it is spelled so on an old Estate map and on the adjoining estate map of Blairadam. Mr Dewar enquired of a Gaelic scholar the proper spelling and meaning of the name and since used the Gaelic Orthography. |

Ordnance Survey - Fife and Kinross counties
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 counties of Fife in the east of Scotland and Kinross in central Scotland. The boundaries of these counties were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
