OS1/29/8/1 CAVERS Cavers Johnston's Map of Roxburghshire Blackwood's Map of Roxburghshire New Statistical Acct [Account] of Roxburgh 019; 020; 025; 026; 032; 033; 038 [Situation] In the Southern division of the County of Roxburgh -- The name of this Parish is said to be derived from Cambro-British Cae and Ber signifying short field or enclosure, notwithstanding that the openness and extent of the Parish as it now exists would seem to render the appellation most inapplicable. The Parish of Cavers is bounded on the North by those of Minto and Bedrule, on the East by Bedrule and Hobkirk, on the South by Castleton and on the West by Kirkton Teviothead, Hawick and Wilton. It was formerly divided near its centre by the Parishes of Kirkton and Hobkirk, but the two divisions are now united by a narrow strip detached respectively from these two Parishes. There is no detached portion of another Ph [Parish] situate within the limits here assigned to Cavers, nor is there a detached part of that Ph [Parish] within the Bdry [Boundary] of any other. Of irregular form - it contains about 18,353 Impl. [Imperial] Acres. The western district is hilly and rugged but towards the East it becomes flat with a rich fertile soil - the southern division is mountainous. Most of the hills are detached and present a conical appearance, though those at the Southern extremity also remarkable for their distinct and rotund shape - are for the most part interwoven with each other

The principal streams are River Teviot at the N.Wn [North Western] boundary and Slitrig Water in the Sn. [Southern] district which together with the other minor streams of the locality contributes its waters to that of the Teviot. It is neither a manufacturing nor mining district. The Turnpike communicating with Hawick and Carlisle runs across the N [North] eastern district. There is a compact neatly built village called Denholm in the northern district, in which are a Free Church and Congregational Chapel also the Parish School. The Parish Church is situate near the central district. The principal land-holders are the Duke of Buccleuch, Sir William Elliott of Stobbs and James Douglas Esqre. of Cavers, the patron of the Parish. Population at the last census 1495. An ancient line of defence supposed to have been between the Romanized Britains and their Saxon invaders on the East, may still be traced at intervals running S.E. [South East] across the Sn. [Southern] district. This rampart may be traced from Galashiels in Selkirkshire on the North to Peel Fell on the boundary between Roxburgh and Northumberland Shires, on the South. Numerous earth works occur throughout the district which are characterized by local Authorities as ancient British Forts. Sites and remains of structures belonging to the middle and feudal eras have been pointed out and shewn.
