Lammermuir Hills
The Lammermuirs are a range of hills in southern Scotland, forming a natural boundary between East Lothian and the Borders. The name "Lammermuir" comes from the Old English ''lambra mōr'', meaning "moorland of the lambs". Geology The Lammermuir Hills are formed from a succession of Silurian and Ordovician age marine sediments known as greywackes together with siltstones, shales and mudstones. They are assigned to the Gala Group. Unconformably overlying these highly faulted and folded strata are outcrops of the early Devonian age Great Conglomerate Formation which forms a part of the Reston Group of Old Red Sandstone rocks. These coarse red-purple conglomerates underlie a band of country in the east between Longformacus and Oldhamstocks and also occur in an isolated outcrop east of Soutra Hill and beneath the Dun Law Wind Farm on the western margin of the hills. The same strata extend down Lauderdale on the western margin of the hills. Numerous dykes of different litholo ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Lammermoor Range
The Lammermoor Range is a range of rugged hills in Central Otago, in southern New Zealand. The range runs for approximately 30 kilometres northeast from the Lammerlaw Range before reaching the Sutton Salt Lake, which separates it from the southern end of the Rock and Pillar Range southwest of Middlemarch. The young Taieri River flows through the range and along its northwest flank. The range was named for the Lammermuir Hills in south east Scotland, possibly influenced by the spelling of Walter Scott's novel '' The Bride of Lammermoor'', which is set in those hills. The Lammermoor Range was the designated site for Project Hayes, a giant controversial wind farm proposal which was abandoned in 2012. The Lammermoor Range is one of only two sites where the Nationally Endangered Burgan skink The Burgan skink (''Oligosoma burganae'') is a nationally endangered species of skink native to New Zealand. It was described from a specimen found near the Burgan Stream, in the Rock and P ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The Bride Of Lammermoor
''The Bride of Lammermoor'' is a historical novel by Sir Walter Scott, published in 1819, one of the Waverley novels. The novel is set in the Lammermuir Hills of south-east Scotland, shortly before the Act of Union of 1707 (in the first edition), or shortly after the Act (in the 'Magnum' edition of 1830). It tells of a tragic love affair between young Lucy Ashton and her family's enemy Edgar Ravenswood. Scott indicated the plot was based on an actual incident. ''The Bride of Lammermoor'' and ''A Legend of Montrose'' were published together anonymously as the third of Scott's ''Tales of My Landlord'' series.

Composition and sources It is not known exactly when Scott contracted to write ''Tales of my Landlord (Third Series)'', but he began composition at the beginning of September 1818, some two months after completing ''The Heart of Midlothian'' and finished it in late April or early May the following ...
