| LAUDER PARISH | Lauder (Parish) | continued | 005 | [Continued from page 2] Under the head of antiquities may be noticed a Roman road, the line of which has been distinctly traced through a considerable part of the parish, & is in various places still perceptible. It passes a little to the West of the town of Lauder, & proceeds towards the Manse of Channelkirk. Near this ancient road, on Lauder hill, are the remains of a military Station, & about 2 miles North from this, on an elevated Spot at Blackchester, are the vestiges of an oval Camp, having one entrance on the East, and another on the West, and fortified by two ditches and mounds of Earth. A camp of similar form & larger dimensions is traced on Tollishill or Tulliushill, in the Northern extremity of the parish. Spanish, Scottish & English Coins have been dug up, Some of which Dr. [Doctor] Ford, the former minister, had in his possession, as well as Several Roman Coins inscribed with the names of Julius Caesar, Lucius Flamininus, and others. Many Tumuli are to be seen on Lauder moor, neat the old road to Melrose, where battles had probably been fought, as fragments of Swords, bows and arrows have there been found, The arrows were pointed with flint Stone tapering from the juncture, about an inch long.
