Only the Introduction remained to be completed, and this was done by J. T. T. Brown and George Neilson, mostly using Amours' materials.

Notes

From Scottish Place-Name News no. 7 (Autumn 1999). 'A lively and well-informed debate anent the origins of this important name has been going on in the pages of recent issues of the Annual Reports of The Society of Friends of Govan Old. It all started in the 1996 Report, when Dr Thomas Clancy made the suggestion that earlier proposals for the origin of the name, deriving it from Old Gaelic gobae ‘smith’, or from the diminutive of OG gop, gopán ‘little beak, promontory’, must be rejected. Instead he proposed a derivation from Cumbric *gwovan ‘small crest, hill or promontory’. In the 1997 Report this was challenged by Dr Alan Macquarrie, who re-asserted the gopán derivation. In the 1998 (Eighth) Report Dr Clancy came back with a spirited and, to my mind, convincing defence of his original proposal. All three articles are well worth reading. Copies of the Reports can be obtained from The Society of Friends of Govan Old, Hon. Secretary Mrs Irene Hughson, Banklug Farm, by Shilford, Neilston G78 3AY.'

Notes

Syllabus exists (W. W. Scott, 2000, Scottish Medievalists). 'The collection comes mainly from an early 15th c. notarial transumpt. Some of it may be corrupt; the editing for the Grampian Club was not always accurate, and so spellings of personal and place-names in particular, and elements of the texts in the acta, are not to be trusted implicitly. In the syllabus place names have been modernised when the identification seemed reasonable.

Source title

A Plan of the Lands of Culsh, the Property of Arthur Dingwall Fordyce Esq.

Notes

Scale given in chains Colour faded browns and yellows Size 6 ft 6 inches by 3 ft. 4 inches Material linen Condition map surface flaking and very fragile. Seen 7 Nov. 1999 by S. Taylor. Content Notes Fields all carefully drawn with exact Acres, Roods and Falls. Scattering of small farms or holdings shown, with no clearly demarcated boundaries; almost exclusively names of tenants as opposed to farm-names written beside each e.g. George Andrew or Alex. Couper [whose name written beside a steading just east of ‘Commonty’ , along with another word which I cannot read], Will Low [near present Hilton of Culsh Cottage] + 6 or 7 more; exceptions are ‘Whiti[?]nBogg’ [Whitebog], ‘Commonty’, ‘Hiltown House’ [Hilton of Culsh], ‘North Mains’. ‘Standen Stones’ and ‘Standing Stones’ used twice in connection with main east-west road, but unclear whether referring to farm of that name, or to actual standing stones [not shown] – probably former. Mains of Culsh shown but not named with policies laid out and big drainage ditches. ‘Mill’ and ‘Milldam’ at north-east end of ‘Den’ [of Culsh]. In top left (n.w. corner) a striking square plantation (probably only projected and never executed – see also Culsh/1809) laid out with intricate patterns of walk-ways in straight and curving lines. Marches on n. side ‘From Point A to Point B the march betwixt Culsh and Lord Aberdeen’, which march goes down the n. end of w. side; on e. side ‘The march with Artamford’; along whole s. side ‘The march with Culsh and Pitfour’; along w. side ‘The march with Culsh and Alathan’. Roads The predecessor of the New Deer to Cuminestown road is called ‘Millstone Road’ – takes roughly same line, but less straight, and (still) forms w. march of lands of Hilton of Culsh. The main e-w. road very much less straight. ‘Road from the Mill Stone Road to Standen Stones’. Further to east is written by it: ‘Road to Standing Stones And Intended to be Sloped’.

Note also that the elaborate (planned) wood shown on Culsh/1768 in n.w. corner of estate is not shown; just rough ground with a farm [of which no trace appears on OS Pathf.] laid out on part of it. Also the area is traversed by the new, straight ‘Road from Comminestone to Newdeer’. Marches with ‘Federat’ in north, ‘Ardtamford’ in east, ‘Auchreddie’ in south and ‘Allathan’ in west.
