_Almas-Cliffe_ (Vol. v., p. 296.).--In the parish of Innerwick, East
Lothian, is a farm named Aimlescleugh, supposed to be a corruption of
_Elms_-cleugh, which may possibly have a common origin with the locality
referred to by your Harrowgate correspondent. Strange to say, the first
meaning of the word _cleugh_, or _cleuch_, as given in Jamieson's
_Dictionary_, is "a precipice, or rugged ascent."
