Peebles old and new
Looking across the river to the church, with the 1980s swimming pool on the riverside, where a tweed mill stood till a fire destroyed it in the 1960s I remember the tall chimney from when I was a child, visiting Peebles with my family. The area of green on the left was probably where the original settlement of Pebyls was in prehistoric times.

40 years ago that island below the cauld was not there. It just shows what nature will do over time. I used to fish on that exact spot because the river was very shallow at that point. Also the railway station was still standing.
