This was filmed at Huntershall, A68, early morning of Saturday 15th June 2019 on way to Dandie Dinmont:
The A68 trunk road still connects Scotland to England and England to Scotland. On Dun Law hill a solitary abandoned Inn has always caught my eye. Today the only neighbour it has, for miles around is the surrounding wind farm.
I have struggled to find any archive material to reveal the story of this Inn other than it was known as Huntershall and in 1855 the Innkeeper was Thomas Crooks.
Follow a line. Follow an idea. Follow a story. Follow a rhythm:
