A Scottish dialectal or archaic variant of 'fourth' or a number representing four items.
From Old English 'feortha' with Scottish pronunciation and spelling variations. Scottish 'ou' often represents what English spells as 'o'.
Scottish English preserved many pronunciations and spellings that sound archaic to modern English speakers, making dialects like Scots a kind of time capsule for older English sound patterns.
