Place name Culter, Lanarkshire 1761

Looking for the place of Alexander Ramage's birth. Can't tell if there's a word under the smudge on the right or if the word at the start of the second line is the whole name. Have also attached an enlargement of the smudged area.

Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
