The adjacent (S) Old Fire Station is listed separately and is linked historically with the inn. The inn started as a beer house, but later became a hotel. It was formerly known as the Red Lion Hotel. The Allanton Inn + Allanton Village The Allanton Inn dates back to 1835 and comprises the main block fronting the street with piended extensions to the rear – these may have been partially rebuilt more recently. The main building has a separate ‘C’ listing from the Coach House / Fire Station / Stables building. Page | 1 50 Hide Hill, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Northumberland, TD15 1AB tel 01289 298090 mobile 07814 574 012 [email protected] Design + Heritage Statement hwad-330-WKR hwad-330-WKR Allanton village was originally part of the Blackadder Estate which comprised the main Blackadder House, 5000 acres comprising 12 farms, home farm with dairy, stables, Bell + clock tower (now Blackadder Mount Farm). 1925 saw the sale of the estate where it was broken up and the farms sold separately. It is recorded that each householder of Allanton was offered one acre for his cow, for six drills of potatoes and to grow feeding for his stock. No one bought the mansion house, so it was demolished. The Beer House / Inn sits on what was a junction on the main Duns to Berwick and was originally two cottages joined in 1890’s (only licenced to sell beer as estate owned, they didn’t want the workers to get too drunk on spirits) with a well in the garden, stables and a hayloft for travellers’ horses but eventually when the stables became redundant, the building became the village fire station. The estate-owned Beer House was eventually sold to Vaux Brewery in 1926 and then rented out the Allanton beer house. A condition of the rent was that the landlord could have a Wine & Spirit Licence and named it The Red Lion. The war years created much business with soldiers and airmen stationed nearby between Allanton & Chirnside. Following the wars, fishing and holiday makers allowed the business to flourish. The Allanton Inn in its previous incarnation as the Red Lion Hotel As the Red Lion hotel, the inn has always remained a popular local watering hole and meeting place changing names to The Allanton Inn in the 1980’s. The Allanton Inn is the only business left in Allanton. But fortunately, as previous hosts at The Allanton Inn have experienced over the hundreds of years, the customer base is extremely varied. There is less business from locals, military, construction and estate workers or even fishermen these days, but the owners have worked hard to create a new customer base. As well as tourists here to explore this beautiful area or passing through En route North or South, there are an increasing number of walkers and cyclists here to enjoy and explore the fantastic rolling countryside. Weekend guests at The Allanton Inn can regularly be found to be attending weddings at either of the nearby venues, Wedderburn Castle or Paxton House. The applicants have worked with local, national and international companies to offer accommodation to their travelling employees, contractors and clients, such as Greenvale, Farne of Scotland, based in Duns, the largest private sector employer in the Borders and just outside Chirnside is the Ahlstrom-Munksjo factory at the historic paper mill on the river Whiteadder. Brief / Proposal / Development Objectives The applicants have been owners of the Allanton Inn for more than 10 years and have built up an impressive award winning business in this time. The proposals are to replace the current defective timber sash and case windows with new / replacement timber sash and case windows complete with double glazed units. The new windows will match the former with no astrigals as indicated on the drawings. The new windows will replace the existing units which have been repaired and maintained to a point where it is no longer viable to do so further. The new windows will be more environmentally friendly and will be formed from hardwood. Current Land Use ‘C’ listed hotel and gardens. Planning / Background Information There have been several applications to the hotel over the years and they include the following. Most of these approvals were enacted. Previous planning approvals and applications as follows : • 05/01478/FUL - Extension to lounge and demolition of outhouses Page | 2 50 Hide Hill, Berwick-upon-Tweed, Northumberland, TD15 1AB tel 01289 298090 mobile 07814 574 012 [email protected] Design + Heritage Statement hwad-330-WKR hwad-330-WKR • 05/01477/LBC - Extension to lounge and demolition of outhouses • 14/00195/FUL - Formation of door from window and re-surfacing at front of property (retrospective) • 14/00185/LBCNN - Internal alterations, external redecoration and lighting (retrospective) • 14/00242/FUL - External alterations incorporating extract vent flue, re-surfacing at front of property, re-decoration and lighting (retrospective) • 14/00243/LBCNN - Internal alterations, external redecoration incorporating extract vent flue and lighting (retrospective) • 19/00999/LBC - Internal and external alterations to form an additional 6 No letting bedrooms (not yet enacted due to Covid) • 19/00998/FUL - Erection of annex to provide 4 No additional letting bedrooms, change of use of former fire station to form 2 No additional letting bedrooms and associated works (not yet enacted due to Covid) Pre-application Discussions No pre-app discussions have taken place.

  • Presbytery of Duns Church of Scotland
    Welcome to the Parish Profile of Duns & District Parishes Presbytery of Duns Church of Scotland Our Parish Duns & District Parishes is located in the Presbytery of Duns in the centre of rural Berwickshire – one of the most beautiful parts of the country. We are 1 congregation of around 140 regular church attenders and 600 members, in a community of 4,800 people. Duns, the county town of Berwickshire, is home to 2,800 ‘Dingers’ with 1,600 more in nearby villages of Allanton, Gavinton, Preston and adjacent countryside. Most of the parish comprises the rugged, sparsely populated Lammermuir Hills, home to 400 in the village of Longformacus and surrounding upland. We’ve big skies, great views and compact communities. Our vacancy is of Unrestricted Tenure, following the departure of our minister to a new charge. We hope this profile gives you a taste of the life of our church, people and community – as we seek to follow Jesus’ example of ministry in a rural area. Our Past Our church and land has a proud history, which provides inspiration for the future. We have given Scotland and the world important religious thinkers like John Duns Scotus, Thomas Boston, Thomas M’Crie the Elder and William Cunningham. In the sixteenth century Covenanter armies based themself here and “Scotland’s religious liberty was saved not by civil law, not by canon law, but by Duns Law”. Previous ministers and elders pioneered psalmody, led great home missions, and even introduced the rickshaw to India! Victorian attendance and membership was higher here than anywhere else, and we once stood at the vanguard of change in the Church of Scotland: the first pipe organ, introducing many worship and decorative innovations, and some of the first Christmas and Easter services.

GLEDHILL The enforced abdication of King John in July 1296 and the consequent degrading of Scotland from an independent kingdom to a mere land of the English monarchy introduced a difficult political dualism into Scottish politics. The military conquest of Scotland meant that its barons and knights now had to decide whether to accept English claims to overlordship that were directly exercised through a colonial government, or continue to support a series of guardians who acted in King John’s name: a situation that lasted until the negotiated surrender of the guardian John Comyn of Badenoch at Strathord in 1304.

  • MEDIEVAL BERWICK Berwick Has Been a Garrison Town Since the Middle Ages Because of Its Strategic Position on the Anglo-Scottish Border
    MEDIEVAL BERWICK Berwick has been a garrison town since the Middle Ages because of its strategic position on the Anglo-Scottish Border. Through the centuries, the town has hosted soldiers of many nationalities. In 1298, King Edward I installed a garrison of 60 men at arms and 1,000 foot soldiers, including some Gascon mercenaries. A petition sent to King Edward II on 20th April 1317 relates to the arrival of an Irish soldier of fortune in the town: “The mayor, bailiffs and commons of Berwick greet the King and inform him that John le Iirois [“the Irishman”] came to Berwick on the Monday before mid- Lent [March 7th] and sought leave of the Keeper to go to western parts to harass the enemy, and did so, and then returned to Berwick on April 12 with 38 men at arms and 54 hobelars (light cavalryman), well equipped, and John and his men are staying in defence of the town up to the date of this letter and still remain.” (Ancient Petitions) Apparently the Irishman had complained that his mercenary men-at-arms all of whom were: “suitably mounted and armed with aketon (a padded quilted jacket), hauberk (a mail shirt) and bascinet (open-faced light helmet)”, were not receiving appropriate pay of 12d a day but were being treated as ordinary hobelars, who were paid only 6d. The petition asks: “May the King recompense John as one who has deserved a reward, having grieved the enemy to the utmost of his power.” After the final capture of Berwick in 1482, Edward IV appointed the Earl of Northumberland Warden of the East March and Keeper of the Town and Castle of Berwick.

  • Border Brains Walks Berwickshire Border Brains Walks Introduction
    Border Brains Walks Berwickshire Border Brains Walks Introduction Welcome to Border Brains Walks: your free guide to exploring the lives and ideas of the Berwickshire geniuses David Hume, James Hutton, Duns Scotus, James Small and Alexander Dow, in the beautiful landscape that gave them birth. The world’s great minds have given us many good reasons to step outside for a walk and a think. Walking was William Hazlitt’s university: “Give me the clear blue sky over my head, and the green turf beneath my feet, a winding road before me, and a three hours’ march to dinner – and then to thinking!” wrote the essayist in On Going a Journey. Berwickshire’s own David Hume, the philosopher, successfully petitioned Edinburgh Town Council to create on Calton Hill Britain’s first recreational walk, entirely dedicated to the public’s healthy pursuits and living. “A circulatory foot road,” he argued, “would present strangers with the most advantageous views of the city … and contribute not only to the pleasure and amusement, but also to the health of the inhabitants of this crowded city.” In this urgent age, we must work hard to find spaces of time to walk or ride a horse or bicycle, to gather our wits and sense our passage over the earth. According to an Arab proverb, the human soul can only travel as fast as a camel can trot. “Modern travelling is not travelling at all,” thought the poet and artist John Ruskin: “it is merely being sent to a place, and very little different from becoming a parcel.
