hi all I have dug out the Alan Godfrey map of Jedburgh (1895). This shows Bankend on the northern side of the Jed as it sweeps past the Bongate Mills. Difficult to work it out as there are no contour lines and the map is in three bits, but I think if you went up Sickmans Path from the Anna and up past the house marked as Jedbank., then Bankhead - Bankend was just to the east. But according to the map you would actually reach it from the other side of the river - by heading round from the Bongate, past the Bongate Mill, along the path between the Jed and the mill lade and then over a footbridge. There seems to be a cottage and a couple of sheds hard by the footbridge, Bankend being a fairly substantial dwelling a bit further on. Sunnyside and Bellevue are directly to the north. Sickmans Path is still there, starting from the Episcopalian Church, dont know about any of the houses mentioned. Now of course none of this contradicts what Roy and Mike are saying about the Woollen mill/station area but the actual dwelling is a reasonable step away. I am pretty sure you could use the description I have given to find the cottage on the old-maps site. It sounds pretty much like the description on the pc. Judy ---------- >From: "Roy G.
