Old travel Blog photograph of the road to Eddleston in the Scottish Borders, Scotland. This is a civil parish and a small village. Eddleston's earliest recorded name was Penteiacob, in Old Welsh or Brittonic, and meant headland of James's house. The Great Polish Map of Scotland is a three-dimensional concrete map in the grounds of the Barony Castle Hotel. It was constructed by Polish geographers in the mid 1970s. The map was conceived partly in recognition of the hospitality afforded to Polish soldiers during the Second World War. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
