Hi

Your best option would be to download the images from Scotlandspeople, as far as Ancestrys transcriptions are concerned someone with local knowledge might be able to interpret them for you but the originals would be your best det.

Abbey Landward was a district in the SE corner of the parish part of the q. sacra parish of Levern.

Waterside #3 probably denotes a tenement.

For the exact location download the original census from SP and read the Header which will give the exact boundaries of the census that was taken.

The 1851 address you listed is just a placename but what Parish was it.

I think the address you are after may lie along the road that runs from the Hurlet restaurant towards barhead which passes the Waterside Restaurant.
