Andrew Johnston Esqr. John Hainning Mr George Riddick |
050 | [situation] Tracing Nn. [Northern] boundary of a small projection at the East side of this parish. A small river which rises in the north end of the parish of Hutton, through part of which it runs; and enters Dryfesdale, after passing a part of Applegarth. It runs a course from north to south for about 2½ miles emptying itself into the Annan, in a direct line between the market town of Lockerbie and the Royal Burgh of Lochmaben, and in moderate weather its water is pure and clear. The bed is of a deep gravel, and therefore in dry seasons it disappears at some parts for about a mile. But, in rainy weather, it comes down in sudden and rapid swells, breaking down and overflowing all its banks, so that nothing in the way can resist the impetuousity of the torrent. Sheep. pigs, even cattle, and trees torn from their roots, have been seen floating on its surface. |
