“Just between Melrose and Bemersyde is a lovely panorama, taking in an oxbow of the Tweed and a fine aspect of the Eildon Hills, which has become known as 'Scott's View', supposedly because the horses stopped there during the funeral cortege. As we have seen, after his death, Scott is over-written onto the places he described. Scott-land is a palimpsest of Scotland and Scott's works.” ScotlandPanoramaWalter ScottScottish BordersEildonRiver Tweed Book:Scott-land: The Man Who Invented a Nation Source: Scott-land: The Man Who Invented a Nation
