The most northerly of the three districts or divisions of the County of Berwick. It is bounded on the South by the district of the Merse, on the West by that of Lauderdale and by Haddingtonshire, and in the North and East by the German Ocean. Lammermoor is separated from Lauderdale by the range of hills in which the Dye Water and its tributaries rise. It is separated from the Merse by the Southern range of the Lammermoor Hills. The exact boundary line cannot be pointed out. It comprises the parishes of Abbey St Bathans, Cockburnspath, Coldingham the detached portions of the parishes Longfarmacus & Oldhamstock and Cranshaws and part of the parishes of Langton Dunse and Buncle |
|
| Cockburnspath [Continued] | There are very few works published from which information respecting this parish can be gleaned, the New Statistical Account of Scotland, and Fullarton's Gazetteer, afford most; but it is evident from the military remains that their description is scanty. In this Parish is locally situated a portion of the Parish of Abbey St Bathans. |
