Transcriber's notes
'Description remarks' for "Knoch Hungavat" end after the word "Signification". As "Hungavat" itself does not translate (there is no attempt made to translate it in the separate entry for "Loch Hungavat"), I have completed the last sentence here simply by suggesting that the signification would be "Hungavat Knoll".
Similarly, there is an indistinct word in the 'Description remarks' for "Loch Tergavat", which reads "Signification "The [illegible] spot loch". The illegible word is at most three letters long and the only possible word from the shapes of the letters written would appear to be "eel".

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.
