"Kirk o' the Forest"
It was on this site that William Wallace was named as Guardian following his victory at Stirling Bridge in 1297. The kirk in the picture was completed in 1747 to replace the pre-Reformation building but fell into ruin after it was abandoned in 1861. Some of the maternal ancestors of Franklin D Roosevelt are buried in the graveyard.

The Soutars o' Selkirk
A frieze depicting a souter (shoemaker) on the gable end of a more modern building. Shoemakers were the largest of the trades in the town of Selkirk in the Scottish Borders, thus the nickname of the natives of the town - Soutars.

Statue of Souter, Selkirk
Souter is the Scots name for shoemaker.
Shoemaking was the main trade in Selkirk until the textile trade arrived - the Shoemakers' Guild was founded in 1609 and survived until the 1960s. The trade lived on until 1975 when John Guthrie, the last shoemaker, retired. This statue on Kirk Wynd in the area known as Selkirk Regis is a monument to the great tradition. Many people surnamed Souter still live in Selkirk.
