026 | A farm steading on the Hillhead above Castle of Careston. It is a name always used in the form given on the Examination Trace, although that mode does not appear on the Estate Map nor in the Val. [Valuation] Roll. There is more reason for adopting the name as generally used from the Hillton of Fearn, in the adjoining Parish on the Estate of Fearn, being near the Hillhead of Careston. |
