Contained in the table below is the valuation roll for Buittle Parish for the year 1803.  The original is contained within a manuscript volume covering all the parishes in Kirkcudbrightshire for that year.
The Note No.'s refer to notations listed under the roll. Interestingly, the entry is headed "Parish of BOOTLE", and other place names are a little different to today's spelling.
