Eddleston Water
Eddleston Water is a small river north of Peebles, in the Scottish Borders area of Scotland which joins the River Tweed at Peebles.〔(Peebles - Undiscovered Scotland )〕 It is also known locally as "The Cuddy".〔(Royal Borough of Peebles - Peebles attractions )〕
Eddleston Water rises near Mount Lothian and passes through Waterheads, Eddleston, Milkieston, Redscarhead along the route of the A703. It runs passing Dalatho into Peebles where the Tree Bridge crosses it.〔(RCAHMS/Canmore record of Eddleston Water )〕
When the Edinburgh to Peebles railway was built in the middle of the 19th century the river was straightened for much of its course which adversely affected the wildlife habitat and increased the speed of flow.〔(Scottish Borders Council publication: "Improving the Eddleston Water for People and Wildlife" )〕 As a result, the river is liable to flooding.〔(SCRAN image: Eddleston Water bursts its banks )〕
In August 2009 the University of Dundee was invited to carry out an initial study on how Eddleston Water could be restored to provide a better habitat for wildlife and to reduces the risk of flooding in Dalatho, Peebles and Eddleston.〔
