Many thanks to Lovat Mill for facilitating this camera's location and to Tweed Rivers Fisheries Association for capitally funding its installation. The River Teviot is a river of the Scottish Borders area of Scotland, and a tributary of the River Tweed. It rises in the western foothills of Comb Hill on the border of Dumfries and Galloway. It flows north-eastwards through Teviotdale and past Teviothead, the Colterscleuch Monument, Broadhaugh, Branxholme and Branxholme Castle. The Teviot passes through Hawick and Lanton, the Timpendean Tower and the town of Ancrum, Harestanes and Monteviot, Nisbet and Roxburgh, before joining the River Tweed to the southwest of Kelso. Lovat Mill has a worldwide reputation for woven excellence in design and quality. As well as the production of Tweed, the mill is also famous for its woven pure cashmeres and other luxury fabrics. Lovat Mill is Scotland's premier weaver of Estate and Regimental Tweeds. We are proud to currently supply over 180 private estates and military regiments throughout the UK. The product we all recognise as “Tweed” has its origins in Commercial Road, Hawick, just a few metres away from where Lovat Mill stands today.
