Do CW own a map??

Last time I checked there was no such place as INVERleithen.

Pedant hat on........

Actually it did used to be called Inverleithen as it is at the end of the river Leithen and that is what Inver means (e.g. Inverness being the end of the river Ness.) Dunno when it changed it's name but I did see a map from the 1800's and it was called Inverleithen on it.

It is now called Innerleithen and a very nice wee place it is too - however I sold my house there a coupld of months ago and moved away!
