In about 1630 these lands were mentioned in a discussion of the history of Saddell Abbey: 'It wes founded thrie hundred yeares agoe be Donnald McRannald Lord of the Isles and these Countries, and dedicate to Oure B: Ladie so that these lands of Saidill are now called Our Ladies lands, and the marqueis of Hamiltone is Superior theroff' (Geog. Coll. ii, 186). The NGR given is for the area around the abbey, on the assumption that the abbey lands were close to the abbey itself.
