\caption{The HII regions and ionising stars of the bright-rimmed clouds in our
study. Parentheses indicate that the listed object is a star rather than an HII
region. The ionising star, spectral type and assumed distance values are drawn from
Yamaguchi et~al.~(\cite{ysmmmof99}) apart from~$\sigma$ Sco where the spectral
type and assumed distance are taken from Eggen (\cite{eggen98}) and 
HD~305938, CCDM J16212$-$2536AB, HD~326286 and  HD~152245, whose values are drawn from SIMBAD.\label{tbl:ionising_stars}}
