020 ; 026 | An ancient district of Berwickshire the Western one of the three into which the County was divided --- In geographical distribution, and agricultural properties, Berwickshire is all strictly divisible into simply the Lammermoors, and the "Merse"; the upper and the lower parts of Lauderdale belonging respectively to these, just as distinctly as any other part of the County --- The limits of Lauderdale, so far as the usage of calling it a district, cannot be defined, and must probably be understood as including simply the Basin of the Leader and its tributaries, so far as the Basin is in Berwickshire --- Even anciently the limits appear to have been very different in successive periods, and to have worked fluctuations both in the kind and the extent of their civil jurisdiction ---"Fullertons Gazetteer Vol 2 Page 232--- |
