Transcriber's notes
Note that two of the entries on this page, Coire Dearg and Coire Dubh, were not pre-populated. There is no indication that they are entered elsewhere and they are listed in the Index as referenced to this page. They are not listed as names on the declared map sheet 75 either but are in fact named on the map. I have therefore transcribed them for this page.
What is Learg Lui? That seems to be the transcription but cannot find it in the Index or associated with map sheet 75 as described. In fact it is probably Learg na Laoigh as shown corrected on page 93 ( OS1/17/2/93).

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