If visiting the countryside this weekend, please help protect wildlife by keeping dogs on leads #RespectProtectEnjoy

This is the 700 year old Milnholm Cross, found near Newcastleton in the Borders.
It was raised to remember an important member of the Armstrongs and if you look closely, you can just make out a sword on the shaft as well as the curled arm of the Armstrong crest at the top

It’s #EssentialSector #FilmFriday
@newcastleton is another example of people doing invaluable things in their communities 🤩
Not least by developing a community hub and buying a hill. Yes, an actual hill. To create pathways and cycle routes for people… amazing ⛰️🚲
