Transcriber's notes
'Description remarks' were not split between the 'Old' and 'New' inns. For the sake of clarity, this split-up has been undertaken, with as little change to actual wording as possible.
As there is a note at the bottom of the two entries for Faihore and Ruigh Liath that "Both the [above] names are said to be ancient and no English meaning could be ascertained for them", it has been decided to insert this for each them in the singular - not plural - sense.
