| Achnacochine | 2m 8s | 1600 | NN 3080 | Gordon(37)
RHP 2494(31) RHP 861 |
2m 8s is probably a shortened form of 2m 8s 4d which would be 2⅝m. Seann Bhaile is at NN 3180. |
| Inverlair | 2m 8s | 1600 | NN 3379 | RHP 2494(32)
Thomson(1830) |
2m with Knockanbuie(E760/1/2 c.1751-5), current position of farm suggests it has moved W from mouth of river? But Thomson also has Innerlarie to W of mouth of Ault Laire. Probably 2⅝m. |
| Fersit | 4m | 1628 | NN 3578 | Roy (PC) 17
RHP 2494(33) Thomson(1830) |
‘Innerseatt’ is 3m 12sh in 1600 which is 1sh 4d shy of 4m. Thomson marks Fersit Riach E of the Water of Treig and Fersit Mor W of the Water of Treig. |
| Torgulbin | 1767 | NN 4382 | Blaeu
RHP 2494(42) |
In 1767 is specified as easternmost farm belonging to the Duke of Gordon in Lochaber. It does not appear in the list of 1600. | |
| Blairour Beg | 3½m | 1600 | c. NN 2282 | Blaeu
RHP 2494 (34) |
Moir was in Dochanassie so the boundary between the two estates must have been that between the two halves of Blairour farm. |

RHP 2494 (29,35) |
Lernedriche(1600), Teirnadreish(1642), Ternedrish(Blaeu & Gordon(38)) |

1m is specified on the East side of water of Treig in 1628, 1722 & 1766. This is not in the list of 1600. The Lochaber rental of 1642 (GD44/51/743/1) mentions 1¼m Lo(i)chtreag. | |
| Total | 37m 12s
8d |
If we allow Achnacochine and Inverlair to be 2m 8s 4d each the the total is 38m. In 1600 the total was 39m 8s 8d. |
