I was a little hasty in sending my query about Ardleak and, having looked again at the handwriting, think that it is more likely to be Ardbreck. On searching the OS map, I cannot find such a place but I have found Auldbreck to the east of Whithorn and Ardbrach to the south. My problem now, is which one could have been misheard as Ardbreck. My guess is AULDBRECK but would be pleased to hear local views based upon local knowledge. Best wishes Donald Craig Liverpool UK

Hi Don Could it be Arbrack in Glasserton parish?
