Placename

Gaelic name: Geadan na Coirce

Name in Original Source: Geadan na Circ (?)

English meaning: Little rig of the oats

Placename feature: Arable land

Notes: This name appears in an undated list compiled by Kenneth Macrae F.S.A. Scot., (1903-1982) which is held by the Applecross Historical Society. The hand-writing on the list in this instance is unclear. It could be Geadan na coire, Geadan na cuirc, Geadan na Circ (sic), but Geadan na Coirce seems more realistic. The list runs in splintered sequences so it is hard to place this name accurately, but it appears to be in or around Camusteel township
