In ancient times, the shire of [Berwick] seems to have been a separate jurisdiction from the Bailliar [Bailliary of] Lauderdale, & to have been itself divided into the Merse & Lam [Lammermoor] districts ---- It is not easy to say what ha [have been] the exact boundaries and exten [extents of] these two divisions, now almo [almost] obsolete -- For the purpose of agricultural enquiry, the whole County may [be] very conveniently considered under two districts - the Merse and "Lammermoor" - the former including all the comparatively low land along Tweed, Whiteadder, Blackadder & Eye; & the latter Comprehending "Lauderdale" - along with the mor [more] eastern hilly ground peculiarly Called Lammermoor & its Contents about 186.214 Acres ------ |
