James Valentine, working for his family company, took some of the earliest photographs of the Tweed in the 1860’s.

According to the medieval tale, ‘The Life of Merlin of the Forest’, Merlin lived in the woods of the South of Scotland in the late 6th Century.

The Tweed has inspired centuries of poets, writers and artists and still inspires us today.

The Peel (or pele) tower is an iconic piece of architecture on the Tweed.
