Duns
Duns (population 2,594) is a community in the Scottish Boundaries, Scotland. It was the county town of the historic region of Berwickshire. Duns has the biggest purchasing facilities in a span of 15 miles (24 kilometres) as well as till 28 January 2015 housed the Berwickshire Sheriff Court, it no more has any type of principal offices of the Scottish Borders Council, however merely preserves a Registry Office. Considering that the early 1990s Duns and also its immediate location have seen significant housing development, some questionable. An advancement near the golf club when traveling to Longformacus just outside Duns is one such instance, as it was built upon greenfield websites. Opposite the old Berwickshire High School a new contemporary Senior high school has been built to change the mid-1950s structures in which the school was previously housed. The new High School opened up in February 2009. The old high school is now being redeveloped right into a primary school, with the rugby and football club making use of the old playing fields.
