Tulloch Wood

 I can't believe this has only just occurred to me. "Tulloch" Wood is in the shadow of Beinn "Teallach". In the valley below at the river side is Tulloch Farm and wee bit east is Tulloch station. Teallach - Tulloch; its got to be variations on the same word..
Locally, and among informed hill walkers, the hill is pronounced "Challach".(Forge or anvil) but the station is pronounced with a T sound. Presumablty the latter is an anglicisation that has come in to common use.
I'm not going to check my facts before typing it, but I think Beinn Teallach is the lowest or second lowest Munro at just over 3000 feet
