  • Place Names of the Parish of Cluny
    Place Names Of The Parish Of Cluny Place Names Of The Parish of Cluny Being The Substance Of A Paper By The Late Rev. Professor Cooper, L.L.D., CLUNY Originally Printed By:- William Mutch 34 and 36 Netherkirkgate Aberdeen 1912 William Walker Craigrath, Elrick, WESTHILL AB32 6TJ If a copy of this is required supply a formatted 1.44Mb disc July, 1998 9204041.exe -- 527kb 1 Place Names Of The Parish Of Cluny A place name is not always simply the name of a place. It is often - " Echt ," for example - that of a locality or district. But a Place Name is frequently the name of an object in a certain place. For example " Cairn Balloch " means the cairn in the pass . Sometimes a Place Name applies to a thing, without any reference to a place at all, e.g. " Clochmore ," Big Stone . As a rule, A Place Name consists of more than one word - two at least, and sometimes more. One word will indicate an object, another the place where it is; or, one word may indicate the place, and another will distinguish that place from others of the same kind One might suppose a Place Name to be only a single word, but when closely examined it will be found to be two. Cloak looks like one word, but it is really Clock-ok , i.e. little stone or stony land. There are some assumptions, which if allowed will afford great help to the Place Name interpreter.
