Old photograph of Deanfield House near Hawick, Scottish Borders, Scotland. Deanfield House was formerly the site of Langlands boathouse, which existed well into the ali-adamsnineteenth century, on the north bank of the Teviot. It allowed members of the Langlands Estate the luxury of quick travel across the river on small boats known as ‘cobles’, which lend their name to the Coble Cauld. Plans had been issued to build a mansion house here in 1850, although it wasn’t until 1879 that Deanfield House was erected to a design by architect John Guthrie. Charles John Wilson, of Wilson & Glenny’s Mill, was the original occupant.
