Talk:Cairn o' Mount

Should this be renamed Cairn o' Mount? The old form Mounth may account for lack of links Finavon 19:54, 19 August 2006 (UTC)

Cairn O' Mount redirects here. While I'm here, this is shockingly lacking in sources - there isn't even as much as an external link at the bottom, never mind citations.-h i s s p a c e r e s e a r c h 03:49, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

Merger proposal

I've proposed merging this with Cairnamounth, as they refer (I believe) to the same route. Combining the two pages would result in a stronger article. DWeir (talk) 21:33, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

• Oppose merge, since these are two different things, each deserving of its own page. 76.191.143.183 (talk) 05:27, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
  • Have you any evidence to support this, as the sites I've visited [1][2][3] suggest otherwise. Perhaps someone with a copy of Haldane's book could weigh in? DWeir (talk) 23:57, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
    • Oppose merge, it seems the sources you provide re-inforce my point that there is a modern road, ancient trackway and archaeological site of essentially the same name, but they are indeed separate objects. No support for the merge in two years. Suggest respectfully we abandon the banner. cheers 76.191.143.183 (talk) 05:23, 23 September 2012 (UTC)
