[Page] 5
Sheet 107 -- Ph. [Parish] of Kilfinichen & Kilviceuen -- Argyllshire

[Letter presumably referring to Innamore Lodge]

9/1.62 AC/Ed 2/3
Caledonian Hotel
Princes Street Edinr. [Edinburgh]
5th. March 1879

Sir,
I would feel much obliged
if you would cause to be entered
the name of the new house I
have built on my property
at Carsaig Island of Mull Argyll
The house was not finished
when Capt. [Captain] Fawkes was last there
My reason for wishing the name
entered on the sheet is that
the house has been built as
a shooting Lodge for letting
and all maps and guides
will copy from the Ordnance

Transcriber's notes

The letter is incomplete, and it looks as though there was no entry for Innamore Lodge on the page, just in the index. It is on the map however.

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 Argyll, which is in the west of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
