| TOLLO HILL | Tollo Hill Tollow Hill East & West Tollo Hill |
A. McFarlane Laytack County Map Estate Map |
026 | Properly this is but a part of Drummore, but according to the personal authority quoted, this part of Drummore formerly derived the name Tollo or Tollow Hill from a small Hill farm which stood on the northern face next the Paphrie. It was immediately below the western extremity of the top (shewn on Trace) where a slight but remarkable gap in the drum or ridge of the feature takes place, and hence, it is supposed, the Eastern part of Drummore, extending to the Ph. [Parish] Boundary, took a separate name from belonging to & being near the farm of of Tollo or Tollow. Respecting the distinctins East & West Tollow on Estate Map there is no information to be had of such being used by the oldest inhabitants of the place. Tollo Hill is but barely recognised & only by the person quoted who is well acquainted with the Hill names of Fearn |
