Day 24 - Saturday 22nd July - Selikirk - The Haining Estate - Walkway to Selkirk & Dandy Dinmont Terriers

Day 24 - Satuday 22nd July

Selkirk - The Haining Estate - Walkway to Selkirk & Dandy Dinmont Terriers

Weather:  Cloudy and then drizzly

Once I had got all my stuff up the stairs and had settled in, I went for a walk to see how to get back to Selkirk Town on the walkway  just below the old house being renovated -


... and into the woodland -


... along here I saw a Coot run off into the lake on the right and a squirrel run up a small shrub to the left.. There were the odd signposts to keep me on track -


... and eventually I got to the carpark through "The Hole in the Lang Dyke" which is the boundary between The Haining Estate and Selkirk Township-


... the Lang Dyke -




At the back of the Haining Estate is a monument to Dandy Dinmont and his terriers -



... the Terrier -

and the man -
