Duns
Duns (population 2,594) is a community in the Scottish Boundaries, Scotland. It was the county town of the historic area of Berwickshire. Duns has the largest shopping centers in a radius of 15 miles (24 kilometres) as well as until 28 January 2015 housed the Berwickshire Sheriff Court, it no more has any principal workplaces of the Scottish Borders Council, yet simply retains a Registry Office. Given that the early 1990s Duns and also its instant area have seen considerable housing development, some debatable. An advancement near the golf club when traveling to Longformacus simply outside Duns is one such example, as it was built on greenfield sites. Opposite the old Berwickshire High School a brand-new modern Secondary school has actually been built to replace the mid-1950s structures in which the school was formerly housed. The new Senior high school opened in February 2009. The old senior high school is currently being redeveloped right into a primary school, with the rugby and also football club using the old playing fields.
