Noted for its scenic beauty the Yarrow Valley is celebrated in the old Borders ballads and in the verse of James Hogg, the Ettrick Shepherd. More recently the tranquillity of the location has been captured in the paintings of the well known Border artist, Tom Scott (1854 – 1927). The Yarrow Water flows down the Yarrow Valley from St Mary’s Loch to the Ettrick Water, southwest of Selkirk. The Yarrow Valley is mainly devoted to pastoral farming and forestry and is an excellent location for walkers, horse riders and mountain bikers whilst fishermen looking to catch trout or salmon are catered for on the Yarrow Water. Selkirk, with a population of around 6,000 has a good range of shops, including 2 small supermarkets, and a number of hotels, inns, churches and primary schools. The town also has a well regarded secondary school. DIRECTIONS From Selkirk take the A708 Moffat road and after the second bridge across the Yarrow Water pass the settlement of Broadmeadows on the right, continue for a few hundred yards to Yarrowford and Broadmeadows West Lodge lies on the right hand side at the foot of a track leading up to Broadmeadows Youth Hostel and opposite the phone box. DESCRIPTION Broadmeadows West Lodge is a charming traditional detached lodge which has been sympathetically extended and improved in recent years. The Lodge is heated by a log burning stove and electric storage heating and windows are partially double glazed. Kitchen and sanitary fittings are modern. Broadmeadows West Lodge sits within attractive garden grounds which enjoy a good degree of privacy and include lawns, borders, shrubs, patios, pond and ample gravelled car parking. A useful range of outbuildings includes a fine summer house, with electricity, which is currently used as an office or workshop. In addition, there is a greenhouse, sheds and a further office/ shed with electricity. COUNCIL TAX Broadmeadows West Lodge falls into Council Tax Band C.

The village is located within the Eastern Strategic Development Area (SDA) as defined by the SESplan. PLACE MAKING CONSIDERATIONS Allanton is located above the riverbanks of the Blackadder Water and Whiteadder Water which meet just north of the village. The character of Allanton is largely defined by the fact that it developed as an estate village of Blackadder House; splay fronted lodges display the old entrance and the village has developed around them in a linear fashion along the road.

  • Birdwatching in the Scottish Borders
    BIRDWATCHING IN THE SCOTTISH BORDERS FREE FrontFront CoverCover Photo Dipper - LaurieLaurie Campbell Welcome to Birdwatching in the Scottish Borders This booklet is a guide to the best birdwatching sites in the Scottish Borders. The booklet has been produced by the Borders Branch of the SOC with help from individuals, local organisations and authorities. The Borders Branch of the SOC is always looking to receive records of bird sightings from anyone in the region to add to its own information as published in the annual Borders Bird Report. We welcome individual records and bird lists, such as from a day’s walk or a fortnight’s holiday, and not just of rarities. We particularly wish to receive observations from the maturing forests and indeed any site where you see birds that are not on the ‘expected’ list. If possible, please include a location, a grid reference and a date for each record. These should be sent to the Borders Bird Recorder, Ray Murray, by telephone to 01721 730677 or by email to [email protected] The Scottish Borders and its habitats for birds Located in the south-east of the country, the 4600 square kilometres of the Scottish Borders have the warmest and driest summer climate in Scotland. Together with a varied topography extending from the coast to over 800m in the Tweedsmuir Hills, these conditions have produced a diversity of habitats for both breeding and wintering birds. Compared with some other regions the Scottish Borders is not noted for high-profi le birdwatching reserves or a large number of hides and other facilities; rather its diversity of birds requires that visits be made to many sites, usually involving short walks.

  • SHORT WALKSWALKS on the Eastern Section of the SOUTHERN UPLAND WAY
    SHORTSHORT WALKSWALKS on the Eastern Section of THE SOUTHERN UPLAND WAY 1 Introduction The Scottish Borders is a beautiful area, full of local history and interest, which deserves to be enjoyed by more people. One of the aims of Scottish Borders Council is to encourage tourism to the area and to enable the public to gain access to and learn more about the countryside. This booklet contains descriptions for 50 walks in the Scottish Borders, along with information on features and places of interest that you may come across whilst out walking. Each walk incorporates a part of the Southern Upland Way. The main route is waymarked throughout its length using the standard symbol for Long Distance Footpaths in Scotland. Other sections of the walks are not waymarked and, although this booklet contains maps of the walks, you are strongly recommended to carry the relevant 1:50,000 or 1:25,000 maps for each walk. The official guide for the route offers exceptionally good value as it provides written information for the route and also includes full 1:50,000 map coverage of the entire route. Acknowledgements This booklet has been produced, within the Countryside and Archaeology section of the Economic Development and Environmental Planning Portfolio of the Council. Scottish Borders Council is pleased to acknowledge financial support from Scottish Natural Heritage, which greatly assisted the production of this guide. The Council would also like to thank all those individuals, too numerous to mention by name, involved in the production of this booklet. Grateful thanks are extended to all the land owners and land managers for their co-operation and assistance in allowing the walks over their ground to be included.

  • Item No 6 (A) Planning & Building
    Item No 6 (a) SCOTTISH BORDERS COUNCIL PLANNING AND BUILDING STANDARDS COMMITTEE 13 JUNE 2011 APPLICATION FOR PLANNING PERMISSION ITEM: REFERENCE NUMBER: 04/02501/FUL OFFICER: Mr C Miller WARD: Selkirkshire PROPOSAL: Wind Farm comprising eight wind turbines, wind monitoring mast, connection building, site access roads, drainage infrastructure, borrow pit and temporary site compound SITE: Land at Broadmeadows Farm, Selkirk APPLICANT: GreenPower (Broadmeadows) Ltd AGENT: None SITE DESCRIPTION The site lies west of Selkirk and immediately north of the settlements of Broadmeadows and Yarrowford, comprising part of Broadmeadows Farm. In the initial application submitted in 2004, the site comprised of 390 hectares of upland sheep grazing with some conifer plantations. However, the site area has now been reduced by one third as a result of the 2010 amendment. The area containing the turbine envelope consists of the western flank of Broomy Law which rises to 463m above sea level and the side of Thorny Cleuch. Broomy Law is exceeded in height by several summits to the west including Brown Knowe, Hare Law and Wanders Knowe. The hills to the east towards the Yarrow and Tweed Valleys are lower although the Three Brethren is the same height as Broomy Law. The remainder of the site consists of rolling farmland down to the Yarrow Valley and is shaped by the valleys of several burns including the Gruntly and Old Broadmeadows Burns. The site includes several plantations on the lower slopes of Broomy Law as the access heads down via existing farm tracks then onto new works through Yarrowford to the A708 public road junction.
