Tweed Water

The River Tweed is 97 miles long, and springs from the same hillside in Tweedsmuir as the Clyde and the Annan. "Annan, Tweed and Clyde rise oot the ae hillside" is a saying from the Border region.

It flows into the North Sea at Berwick-on-Tweed.

On this sunny morning it courses past the tower of Peebles Old Parish Church, where the carillon of bells is playing

"O for a closer walk with God, a calm and heavenly frame."

- The Old Scottish Psalm tune, Caithness from the 1635 Psalter.
