Transcriber's notes
Pontage. The third Authority given as "Mr W. W" is assumed to be Mr W. Weir who is listed as Authority for other names on this page.
In the column "List of names" the entry has originally been Crossford T.P. [Turnpike] but this has been partially scored through and annotated "Pontage only written, it being in the village of Crossford"
Threepwood. No Authority has been shown for the spelling "Thripwood"
Craignethan Burn. Although three Authorities are listed, only one spelling is given.
Craignethan. The abbreviation "T.M." in Description is not a standard Ordnance Survey abbreviation, nor can I find a plausible example in the dictionary and the meaning is unclear

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