015 ; 021 | A broad range of Moorish heights stretching Eastwards from the Vale of Gala Water, in the S. [South] East extremity of Mid Lothian, to the German Ocean at St. Abb's Head, Coldingham, Berwickshire. The Lammermoors all lie within East Lothian, & Berwickshire; commencing at their extreme Western limit, forming for two thirds of their extent a Southern Screen or belt of uplands to Mid-Lothian; & constituting if the Lammermoor part of Lauderdale be included, nearly one half of Berwickshire. The Lammermoors, are, in themselves, an extensive curvature of, for the most part, wild, Cheerless, unsightly heights, nowhere bold & imposing in aspect and after subsiding into low rolling Table-lands of bleak Moor. They were at one time clothed with Forest, & must have been as bewildering to the Traveller, as grandly Sylvan in their vast contribution to the Landscape. [Continued on Page 10] |
