I G Whittaker 1998.
The location assigned to this record is essentially tentative, being derived from the unverified location that is cited by Whittaker. Armadale Point is not noted as such on the 1997 edition of the OS 1:50,000 map, but the term may refer to Rubha Phoil [name: NG 641 034], a prominent headland to the S of Armdale Bay [name centred NG 630 038] and village.
