St Mary's Loch With Music On History Visit To Borders Scotland

Tour Scotland short aerial 4K travel video clip, with Scottish Music, of St Mary's Loch on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip to Borders, Britain, United Kingdom. St Mary's Loch is the largest natural loch in the Scottish Borders, and is situated on the south side of the A708 road between Selkirk and Moffat, about 45 miles south of Edinburgh. It was created by glacial action during the last ice age. The loch is fed by the Megget Water, which flows in from the Megget Reservoir, and is the source of the Yarrow Water, which flows east from the loch to merge with the Ettrick Water above Selkirk. The loch takes its name from a church dedicated to Saint Mary which once stood on its northern shore, although only the burial ground is now visible. The Southern Upland Way and Sir Walter Scott Way long-distance walking routes both pass the shores of the loch. Of interest to folks with ancestry, genealogy or Scottish Family Roots in Scotland who may wish to visit one day.
