What is recorded here
Venlaw Castle Hotel still keeps its south lodge on Edinburgh Road, a early 20th Century gate lodge beside a matching pier and wall. The stones mark the edge of a private estate, not an invitation for strangers, yet they preserve the moment when Peebles first dressed itself for grand tourism. A carriage may have clipped that wall or a servant may have waited in the lodge for hours, both lives reduced to a line on a modern map.
