015 | [Situation] About 5/8 mile W by N [West by North] of Earlston Castle. A Cascade of about 8 feet on the Water of Ken, up which the Salmom, except in high floods Cannot ascend & they here often excite observation by repeated and exhausting, though vain leaps to surmount the Water Spouts which repel their further progress, and large numbers falling an easy prey to fishermen with bug-nets. The Water for a considerable distance down runs in a very deep & narrow channel, and is embosomed on each Side by very precipitous rocks. It is on the land of Earlston and Situate a little to the West of the Castle hence the name. - |
