Old photograph of the clubhouse on the golf course in Peebles in the Borders of Scotland. The club was founded on 12 October 1892. Its original 9 hole course was located at Morning Hill on the farm of Edderton to the southwest of the town. This Scottish town is located at the confluence of the River Tweed and Eddleston Water, locally called the Cuddy. Initially a market town, Peebles played a role in the woollen industry of the Scottish Borders up until the 1960s. The annual local festival is called the Beltane, and involves, as with many Borders festivals, a Common Riding. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
