123-4 Parish of Port of Monteith -- Perthshire
[Note beside 'Eas Gobhain']
J.B. Hamilton Esqr. and the Minister of the parish of Callander calls it "Eas Gobhain" on the authority of the Statistical Account and I believe the common Examiners have adopted this name, on their authority. I have made every enquiry, and cannot find any to corroborate Eas Gobhain. [Initialled] D.H.
The Stewarts have been all their days farmers here, & their forefolks for some generations, and they never heard it called Eas Gobhain.
The more general name for it in the Town of Callander is Coilhallan river from the wood which skirts its south side called Coilhallan Wood. [Initialled] D.H.

This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Perth, which is in central Scotland.
