Cauldcleuch Head

It's hard to find much to say about Cauldcleuch Head that isn't statistical. It is the highest point in the Roxburgh Hills on the south side of Teviotdale. In fact it is the only point that rises above the magical 2000 foot contour in this area. This makes the hill both a Donald and a Graham. In fact it is the closest Graham to England, just 12 miles from the border. As for the aesthetic ... well it's mostly peat bog, discarded rusty fence wire and ...er .. dead sheep. This is the view to the west, towards Wether Law.
