For example, the loss of record relating to Tweed, than in other regions. A few localities in northern England almost all the religious houses of south-western Scotland (except are included to demonstrate the Scottish interest in Northumberland Paisley) is undoubtedly reflected in the noticeable absence of placeand English Cumbria during the twelfth century.
