Accessing Scotland's Past Project

The farmstead of Corsbie stands about 400m north of the ruins of Corsbie tower near the Dowdiedean Burn and comprises several outbuildings, cottages and a farm house. Corsbie is recorded on maps as early as the Armstrong's Map of the County of Berwick, dating to 1771. Reference to the 1st edition of the Ordnance Survey 6-inch map of Berwickshire (1862) shows Corsbie as a large steading, with the farmhouse standing in wooded grounds, and a large mill pond and sluice on the nearby Dowiedean Burn.
