Old photograph of the road to Coulter, South Lanarkshire, Scotland. The Monks of Kelso and the Templars feature in the early history of Coulter, also known as Culter. The village is the likely location of the fictional Midculter from Dorothy Dunnett's 6 book series The Lymond Chronicles. Within that series, Midculter is the home of the Crawford Barons of Culter and of the protagonist, Francis Crawford of Lymond. A possible location for their castle, Midculter Castle, is Coulter Motte.
