 Tweedsmuir Kirk

The Crook Inn, founded in 1604 has been closed since 2006 and is in great danger of demolition or concersion. The local community are making efforts to save the old lady which sits on the north bank of the River Tweed

 There is believed to have been a church at Drumelzier since the 12th century.

The most notable family in the parish were, for long, the Tweedies. That family's burial vault is contained at the old kirk

 

 The River Tweed drifts past Dawyck near the wonderful Botanic Gardesn whci contains a great house and chapel. The estate was gifte to the Royal Botanic Society by teh Balfour family in the 1970s. Tweed is heading downstream in the photograph.
