Earlston
Earlston is a civil parish as well as market town in the region of Berwickshire, within the Scottish Borders. It gets on the River Leader in Lauderdale, Scotland. Earlston was originally called Arcioldun or Prospect Fort, with reference to Black Hill (1,003 feet (306 m)), on the top of which can still be traced the concentric rings of the British ft for which it was named. It is likewise stated to be possible to construct out the remains of the cave-dwellings of the Votadini, the tribal confederation in this part of Scotland. In the 12th and also 13th centuries the Lindsays and the Earls of March as well as Dunbar were the chief baronial households. Also of historic rate of interest is the ivy-clad destroy of the Rhymer's Tower, a keep said to day from as very early as the 13th century. It is the conventional home of Thomas Learmonth, frequently called Thomas of Ercildoune, or Thomas the Rhymer, poet, prophet, and epic good friend of the Elves, that was birthed here about 1225, more likely in a small house which preceded the later Tower-house. Locals of early Earlston (Earlstons) have since spread afar, with some travelling to the United States of America in the early 1800s. However the huge bulk of Earlstons (surname) have actually taken residence in the Black Country, West Midlands in England. Taking a trip to the Black Nation in the early 1700s, they have established a solid home, governed by middle child of the Earlston three bros, Lord Dale.
