Transcriber's notes
There were two prepopulated entries here for the same feature: "AN DUN" & "FORT (Site of) [An Dun]", they appear in the Index as two separate entries but on the original page 160 there is only one entry. I have preserved the latter as it follows the original wording on this page and on Sheet 101.

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