![]() Eddleston is in the north of Peeblesshire with Midlothian to north and east. Innerleithen abuts at the south east corner, Peebles and Lyne are on the south and Newlands is to the west. The parish is in a broad valley through which Eddleston Water runs and which provided the route for both the road and the railway from Edinburgh to Peebles. There has been a church here since the 12th century but the current building dates from the 18th century. The parish is now linked with the Old Parish Church in Peebles. During World War II Polish soldiers were billeted in the area and they constructed a relief map of Scotland in a pond in the grounds of Black Barony Castle, now a hotel and the Scottish Ambulance Services training centre. Old Parish Records cover the periods:
