  • The Arran Place-Name Survey 1974–75
    The Arran Place-Name Survey 1974–75 George Broderick Universität Mannheim 1. Introduction In the early spring of 1974 I was presented with the opportunity of undertaking a collection and survey of the place-names of the island of Arran.1 This unusual situation came about as a result of the wishes and desires of the Arran Society of Glasgow to have a scientific collection and assessment of Arran place-names undertaken by the School of Scottish Studies, University of Edinburgh. In this regard, the then encumbent of the Chair in the School, Professor John MacQueen, was asked by the Society to provide personnel for this assignment. I was not the first but in fact the fourth (if I recall correctly) to be asked; the previous three, for one reason or another, were unable to complete the task.2 Now under pressure from the Arran Society, Prof. MacQueen, mindful that I had expressed an interest in the project, called me into his office and put the case to me. He said that many of the recordings made by Prof. Nicolaisen were of poor sound quality – Nicolaisen himself admits that in his own Tape Register – and suggested that I take over where Nicolaisen had left off and seek to re-establish contact with as many of his informants as possible who were still living. It was pointed out to me that prior collections were incomplete and I would have to rescue what was left in Arran to complete the job. This I agreed to do. 2. The name Arran3 OIr. nom.
