The Two Mile Cottages
These houses, on the edge of Galashiels, were always known as the "Two Mile Cottages", presumably because of their distance from the town centre.

Melrose Gait
The name Melrose Gait on this signboard for the proposed 500-home housing scheme at Easter Langlee in Galashiels has proved controversial with some councillors and residents of Galashiels and Melrose who objected to the name because Melrose is 4km away. The developers Persimmon Homes have agreed to rename the site with Ellwyn Glen, the valley to the east, being the likely alternative. Work on the first phase of the development, which includes 140 houses, a square and a village shop, has already commenced. The sign is near the site entrance on the C77 Langshaw road.

Farmland at Easter Langlee, Galashiels
A planning application was lodged with Scottish Borders Council in 2007 by Persimmon Homes to erect 118 new houses (phase 1) on this farmland. In a phase 2 development, more houses were planned to the east of this area, but since the arrival of the credit crunch nothing has happened on site and advertising signs that were erected by the company were taken down a long time ago.
