Cnoc na h-Airigh-seilich


Cnoc na h-Airigh-seilich - Hill of (the) shieling (with) sparse pasture or spare (lean) animals; Mcarthur (1986) translates as  "hill of the willow sheiling"; MacLeod concurs with the same translation.   It may be that the place name has an allusive meaning in that the animals were “lean as a willow”.6740 9310
