25d Ormolu
Yes, Ormolu which doesn't fit either so it looks as if you have an incorrect letter

I've put INVERLOCHY for - Battle of 1645 where Montrose defeated a Covenanter force, the third of his six victories that year(10)
Well according to this site it looks to me as if the 3rd battle of that year was at ALFORD (Inverlochy being the first) but that doesn't fit so you may be right
