The RCAHMS (RCAHMS 1933) incorrectly records Duniface Hill as ‘Dunipace’. ‘Dunniface’ or ‘Duniface’ are the names recorded in the OS Name Book and on the corresponding 1st edition of the 6-inch map (Fife 1856, xxiv). Duniface is also the name given to a farmstead lying to the SE of the hill. John Ainslie’s 1775 map of the County of Fife is annotated with ‘Dinnyface’.
