LAMMERMOOR (District) | Lammermoor (District) | Map of Berwickshire Gazetteer of Scotland New Statistical Acct. [Account] Berwick [Berwickshire] |
004 | In ancient times the shire of Berwick seems to have been a separate jurisdiction from the bailliary of Lauderdale, & to have been divided into the Merse and Lammermoor Districts. It is not easy to say what had been the exact boundaries of these 3 divisions, now almost almost obsolete. For the purpose of agricultural inquiry, the whole County may be considered under two districts, - the "Merse" and "Lammermoor"- the former including all the Comparative low land along Tweed, Whiteadder, Blackadder & Eye; & the latter Comprehending Lauderdale, along with the more eastern hilly country pecuriarly Called Lammermoor.
