Crailing Eckford & Nisbet Community News

Eckford is a small rural village set in stunning scenery in the heart of the Scottish Borders. The village hall is Eckford’s only remaining public facility as the Post Office, Shop, Church and school have long since closed. We believe the hall plays a vital role in strengthening community spiritin the Parish of Eckford which has a small resident population of around 150 people situated between the towns of Kelso and Jedburgh around 5 miles from each.

Please visit the History of Eckford website. This website spawned from a millennium project by the Eckford SWRI (Scottish Women's Rural Institute) to update The History of Eckford Parish, a document originally collated in 1966 to commemorate their fortieth anniversary. You can read their work in the History section of the site www.eckford.org.uk
