Transcriber's notes
CAIRNS [Ormaig]: in the Name Book this is not a separate entry but rather part of the Standing Stone entry. I have been unable to locate either feature near Ormaig on Sheet 138. The Index has one entry for each without specifying the location. Found at Kintraw on sheet 138 [just north of Creag nam Fitheach] : one standing stone and four cairns are marked and named separately [although close together].

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.
