Description:
|
This sketch map, drawn in 1675 shows those lands belonging to Mertoun and those belonging to Bemersyde, north of the River Tweed in the parish of Mertoun. It also shows 'lands pertaining to Sir William Scott'. The map marks the River Tweed in the south, Mertoun Loch, Whitrig Loch, the 'Mill dam down from Mertoun Loch', and the houses of the three properties at Bemersyde, Mertoun and Whitehouse, as well as the small farm of 'Third'. It also notes the presence of the 'vestiges of a march dyke'. All these properties can be found on the modern map.
