Sheet 179 North Knapdale Argyllshire

[Bruach-seilich Bheag] The compound word Bruach-selich is a feminine noun

that of the willow? see page 111
Bruach-seilich
In any case it ought to be a compound word
and then there s no doubt about the adjective

[Creag an Daimh Lachduinn] The same word may be used for both Swarthy,
and "Dun-coloured", but the latter is used only because it seems more intelligible in its
application. The final e in the last word not needed.

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.
