Lands of Threepwood : ウィキペディア英語版 | Lands of Threepwood
The lands of Threepwood were located in the Parish of Beith, at the eastern boundary between East Renfrewshire and North Ayrshire, Scotland. The settlements of Midtown, Townhead and Townend were part of the old Threepwood Estate. Cuffhill at 675 feet is the highest eminence in the parish and it overlooks the area with Little Hill and Cuff Hill and Little Hill plantations nearby, now situated next to the entirely artificial Cuffhill Reservoir. ==The History of the Lands of Threepwood== The name 'Threepwood', 'Thriepwood' or 'Threppe-wood'〔Paterson, Page 115〕 may derive from the Scots term 'Threap-wood' meaning a piece of woodland the ownership of which was disputed and found in Ayrshire as a place name. In Scottish history the term Threaplands referred to the Debatable Lands on the Scottish-English border.〔(Dictionary of Scots ) Retrieved : 2013-11-12〕
