Old Photograph South Hermitage Street Newcastleton Scotland

Old photograph of a shop, cottages, houses and children on South Hermitage Street in Newcastleton in the Scottish Borders, Scotland. Newcastleton was built as a result of the land clearances in the 1790s when people were forced to move from Old Castleton village. The present village is within the historic boundaries of Roxburghshire, a few miles from the border of Scotland with England. The village is in Liddesdale and is on the Liddel Water, and is the site of Hermitage Castle.
