It is situated half a mile east of the hamlet of Legerwood and south east of Lauder in the Scottish Borders, on an unclassified road east of the A68 highway at . The parish church at Legerwood serves a wholly agricultural community and there are barely any clusters of houses worthy of being known as a village. == History == There has been a religious establishment at Legerwood since, at least, 1127 as John, a priest at Ledgaresude, as it was known, was a witness to a charter of that year. Walter de Lauder granted the church to the monks of Paisley Abbey in 1164 and they held the church and its tithes until the coming of the reformed church in Scotland in 1560. There is more mention of Legerwood in 1296 when the vicar, Walter, swore fealty to Edward I of England in 1296 at Berwick-on-Tweed. The church still retains its original Norman chancel.〔Scottish Borders Heritage〕
