Sundays At Gattonside - Scottish Country Dancing Instruction VideoDance Information
This dance was devised by the 2002 Preliminary Teacher's Certificate Class to celebrate their course, held at Gattonside Village Hall, Main Street, Gattonside, Melrose, Scotland, from October 2001 to March 2002.
Gattonside Village Hall
Gattonside is a small village situated in the Scottish Borders, approximately 1 kilometre (0.62 miles) north of Melrose, on the northern bank of the River Tweed, Scotland.
In 1143, King David I granted the lands of Gattonside to the monks of Melrose Abbey. The village is connected to Melrose by the Gattonside Suspension Bridge, a 19th-century structure built in 1826. The bridge, which underwent repairs in 1992, is recognized as a Category B listed building.
