006 | This name is applied to a row of Cottages situated to the south of and detached from, the rest of the village of Crawick Mill, of which however, it may be con- -sidered as substantially forming a part. It would appear to have derived its name, as it implies, from its position being situated upon the breast of the rising ground that stretches in a south westerly direction from the top of Lawyer's Braes to the Glasgow and South Western Railway. Windyedge is the property of John Halliday, postmaster, Sanquhar and is occupied by weavers Employed in the Carpet Works at Crawick Mill. The Cottages are in good repair and the gardens attached carefully kept. |
