  • The National Borders of Scotland
    The National Borders of Scotland Updated and extended October 2013 By Dr James Wilkie & Edward Means of Dr James Wilkie & Associates Scotland’s national borders comprise one terrestrial border with England and several sea borders, two with England and several with other countries (the Isle of Man, Ireland, Faeroes, Norway, Denmark, Germany and the Netherlands). The government of the United Kingdom has attempted to make unwarranted and illegal changes to both the terrestrial and the North Sea borders between Scotland and England. All these purported changes have been unfavourable to Scotland. The purposes of this paper are: To provide the Scottish people with complete information on Scotland’s true national borders, including information on historic and more modern illegal attempts to change them; To expose the UK Government's recent and current bad-faith manoeuvres to change the true national borders; To expose the Scottish Government’s dereliction of its duty to the people of Scotland by not taking constant and unceasing official action against those illegal UK Government actions; To expose the European Union’s undemocratic, bureaucratic, imperialistic and often recklessly incompetent intrusions into Scotland’s territorial waters. This paper is an update and extension of ‘The National Borders of Scotland’, originally published in November 2011, 2009. It also incorporates some material from ‘Scotland’s Hijacked Oil Revenue’, published in September 2010. This paper adds significant relevant material which has recently come to light, and examines some of the ramifications of the European Union’s Lisbon Treaty and alternatives to Scotland’s remaining in the European Union. 1 of 23 Terrestrial Border Scotland’s terrestrial border with England was fixed on 25 September 1237 by the Treaty of York, signed by Alexander II of Scotland and Henry III of England.

  • Early Large-Scale Maps from Cumbria: Edward VI to James I
    Early Large-Scale maps from Cumbria: Edward VI to James I Local maps are exceedingly rare in the medieval period – only thirty are known for the whole country, none of them from Cumbria. Under the Tudors, local maps become a little more common, produced for government purposes, or to assist courts in legal disputes, or for estate management. Only one, or possibly two such maps depicting any part of Cumbria is known for the first half of the sixteenth century, but more than a dozen survive from the second half, listed below, together with a number of known, and two lost, local maps from the reign of James I. Perhaps inevitably, the majority of these maps focus upon the borders with Scotland. If anyone knows of any maps of this era that we have missed, we would be grateful to learn of them. The maps themselves are not reproduced for copyright reasons, but references as to their locations are given, together with details if they have been previously published. (1) Petyt’s Castlemilk, 1547 (Hatfield House, Cecil Papers Maps, CPM II.27) Probably made by Mr Petyt, Surveyor of Calais, this is a coloured picture map which just touches on Cumbria, showing the castle at Castlemilk in birds-eye view, with its height and other dimensions marked, while distances are shown (in miles) to a range of surrounding places from Dumfries to Langholm and Carlisle, the latter being shown walled, and dominated by its cathedral. Four cardinal points are named, and the map has south-west at the top. It was made after the defeat of the Scots at the battle of Pinkie, 10 September 1547 and the capitulation of Castlemilk, and was clearly produced to show Protector Somerset the strategic importance of the castle.

  • 1 People, Space, and Law in Late Medieval and Early Modern Britain and Ireland
    1 People, space, and law in late medieval and early modern Britain and Ireland* ‘In England, to all appearance, law very rapidly became territorial, and he was a West-Saxon who lived in Wessex.’1 Law is one instrument of government: a discourse of authority central to claiming, peopling, exploiting, and keeping spaces.2 It is ‘an arm of politics and politics was one of its arms’.3 Historians have charted how law could be used to integrate a polity (Wales with England) or to change its social characteristics (the project to ‘civilize’ Ireland) or to mark out its separateness (the guarantee of Scots private law at the Union of 1707).4 Since the era of the great Whig historians of the nineteenth century, law and history have diverged and British social historians have paid scant attention to law as an institutional basis for difference and something which shapes (and is shaped by) local ‘manners’, customs, and habits.5 Yet law itself is of historical significance, not just a filter through which we perceive the people of the past, not an epiphenomenon of something else, and not a marginal curiosity: ‘law matters’.6 By recognizing that they have taken over much of the agenda of the old legal tradition, historians can add a ‘legal turn’ to the spatial one which they have begun to incorporate into their work.7 A comparative approach that makes law part of both geography and society can shed fresh light on convergences and divergences in the historic experience of different parts of Britain and Ireland.

George MacDonald Fraser, The Steel Bonnets: The story of the Anglo-Scottish Border Reivers (London: Pan Books, 1972), 20. “The Anglo-Scottish Border follows a line roughly south-west to north-east, from the Solway Firth to Berwick-upon-Tweed, roughly along the Cheviot Hills.” “It is a land of bare, bleak, and wildly beautiful moorland, upland, wooded valley and peat bog.” Matthew Hartley, “The Bloody Borders: 16th century Anglo-Scottish Border Reiving” Jean le Bel in 1327 “described the [north/border] country as ‘wild country, full of wastelands and great hills and very impoverished, save for livestock.’” Andy King, “The Anglo-Scottish Marches and the Perception of ‘The North’ in Fifteenth-Century England,” Northern History 49:1 (March 2012): 38.

  • The Lands of Johnnie Armstrong Known As
    The Lands of Johnnie Armstrong Known As "Of Kilnockie"This article is from the 1996 Christmas issue of the Milnholm Cross and Trust Topics, the newsletter of the Armstrong Trust. It was written by Alan Armstrong, then the Chairman of the Armstrong Trust and republished in The Armstrong Chronicles, April, 2005. The first we ever hear of Johnnie is in 1525, recorded in The Book of Carlaverock. Therein is a Charter (or "Letter of Entries") given by Robert Lord Maxwell in favour of John Armstrong, of Lands in Eskdale dated 4th August. Transcribed into modern English it reads: "Be it known to all men by the present letters, I Robert Lord Maxwell, warden of the West March of Scotland against England and having of our Sovereign Lord the King the lands and lordship of Eskdale, have taken and reserved, and by the tenor of the present letters takes and reserves to my loving friend Johne Armistrang, tenant in free heritage to the lands underwritten with their attachments, that is to say, the lands of Dalbetht, the lands of ScheId, the lands of Dawblane, the lands of Staplegortoun, the lands of Langholm, and the lands of Teviotshelis, with their attachments, lying in the Lordship of Eskdale, within the Sheriffdom of DumJries; And also for the good and thanliful service done and to be done and to be done to me and my heirs by the said John Armistrang and his heirs, I grant me to have entered him to the said lands, in fee and heritage, to be held of me and my heirs as Lords of Eskdale for evermore, after the form of his infiefment; In witness of which thing to this my letter of entries, subscribed with my hand, my seal is hung, at Dumfries, the third day of August, the year of God 1525, before the witnesses John, Abbot of Dundranan, Sir Herbet McBrare, chaplain, Herbert Gledstanis, Andrew Herries and James Anderson, with many others.

Longtown is at an important junction with the A6071 from Brampton in the east, which continues to link with the A74(M) to Glasgow to the west of Longtown and the A75 to Dumfries and Stranraer. There are also minor roads to the north, east and south which serve the wider agricultural hinterland. It is located on the banks of the River Esk, with a bridge crossing that has historic significance and was a toll crossing. Nearest settlements include: Westlinton (2.8 miles); Moat (4.2 miles); Easton (4.2 miles); and Gretna (4.8 miles), Longtown has the largest sheep auction market in England. This is strategically very significant for livestock farmers in a wide area. Auction day is also important for socialising for the livestock farming community and for the local economy. Longtown is also the site of one of the biggest Defence Munitions Sites in Western Europe. It was one site that stretched to Eastriggs over the border in Scotland, which was the biggest maker of explosives during WW1, where Gretna was established to house the workers. Currently, the future of the munitions store is under review as the license will require renewal in 2014 and investment is required to upgrade the facility. The area was remote and this western border between Scotland and England was not clearly defined from the 14th to the 17th centuries.
