Notes:
The Valley of Posso, a legendary location for the sport of kings - Falconry. Thomas de Bard possessed the country estate of Posso and in 1296 was Sheriff of Peebles. His estate featured the Bard Peel Tower with which to guard against invaders. In the event of trouble, a large fire was set ablaze at the top of it which could be seen by the next peel tower and thereby alert the community to danger.
Today it is a farm, located in a valley directly beneath Hill Fort (Macbeth's Castle). It is a short distance south of Peebles and in a valley with direct access to Edinburgh.
