The blunder follows the presenter's renaming of the Barras market "Barrass" in an earlier season of the show.
In a paper published in the Proceedings of the Society for 1883, I
described, perhaps too minutely, twenty-four iron-grated doors or " yetts "
peculiar to ancient Scottish castles, and I should not have reverted to
the subject, were it not that twenty-two additional examples have since
become known to me, some of them differing considerably from those
previously described. The number of known yetts, therefore, is now
raised to forty-six, without reckoning three iron gates of exceptional construction
; and although it is quite possible that others may still remain
in obscurity,
