Hill of the bull
Meall Tairbh, meaning "Hill of the Bull," is a modest upland feature likely rising less than 300 meters. Its name suggests possible Celtic origins, reflecting early pastoral or mythological associations with cattle. While its precise geology is undocumented, such hills in Scotland often consist of ancient metamorphic or igneous rock. Local significance may be tied to traditional land use or folklore, though broader historical records are sparse.
