Welcome to the wee website about the Rule Water and its People! This is a beautiful place in the Scottish Borders, full of history, tales of heroism and brave adventure, which still echo in the heartbeat of the people who live here. Why not take a meandering left turn over the Carter Bar - the Borderline between Scotland and England on the A68, or travel about an hour South from Edinburgh, to discover and explore this beautiful little valley.

Poem 'The Valley of the Rule' by Frances Madeline Cleghorn, taken from Rulewater and It's People, by George Tancred of Weens, first published in 1907.
This is a personal site that I run in my spare time, aiming to promote local businesses and help encourage visitors to the area. You will see there are click-through links and adverts on the site, which may well use cookies. These offer me a small commission which is at no charge to you, which helps keep the website running, and allows me to promote local businesses for free. I try to keep links relevant and useful so that they will enhance your visit, but I do not control the adverts, and each click-through is appreciated. Thanks!
