Pinkerton burn runs through our land. It was said to run red for 3 days after this battle!



Lots of local historical interest as well as on our land - old smithy waterwheel used to be here as well as small gauge railway, gravel pit & sandstone quarry where our cottages were built from.



the "Burro" tent pitch is off the original donkey & cart track that ran up to "Rosebank" - the ruins of which can be seen.
