[Note] -- This mode of spelling
seems to be the best. There
is much diversity of opinion
regarding this name; indeed
no fixed orthography. The
adopted spelling is the nearest
to the original.
"At Elbottle a name now given to a plantation north of Archerfield
And which is the abbreviation of the Saxon word Eldbotel signifying the
old dwelling,) there was a convent of Cistertian Nuns, a cell of the great
establishment of those nuns, founded by David I at Berwick-upon-
Tweed. There was, it is said, another cell of the same establishment
at Golyn, near the Church, probably, however, identified with
Elbottle". -- Stat: Acct: [Statistical Account] of Scotland (Hadd:) [Haddington] Page 211 |
