The map sheet assigned to this record is essentially arbitrary, being derived from the place-name cited by Whittaker; this remains unverified. Kirkapast is possibly to be equated with Kirkabost or Circebost [name: NB 17 34], although similar place-names are common across Lewis and the Western Isles. Whittaker also describes this place as an island, rather than a settlement.
