Revd. W. McIntosh Mr A. Liston Balmaha W. Jolly Esqr. Factor R. Marshall Shepherd D. McFarlane, Old Manse |
013.12 | The name applies to the southern Knoll which is in line with those in Balmaha Plantation running from the top of, and in line with, the "Conic Hill." It stands between the "Pass of Balmaha" & the Loch, over the Pier, where steep Craigs fall to the Loch. The place is naturally defended, & it is supposed by the authorities quoted, that it takes its name, which is very well known, merely from its structure, there being nothing of importance known in connection with it. The top is pasture ground planted near the edge as represented on Trace by fir trees, the lower part of the wood being of a mixed character. The highest part of the top is shown & also the top within which the name is applied, which is the proper place to write the name. |
