<p>Wrae Tower consisted of  rectangular keep with a stair-tower extending off the north corner.  Nothing remains of the keep - the fang of surviving masonry is the shell of the stair-tower, which remains more or less at its full height, the corbelling that supported the parapet wall being still visible.</p>

<p>Wrae Tower was probably built by the Tweedies of Wrae, who owned the property in the 16th and 17th centuries.<br />

<p>A mere half a mile from Drumelzier Place, but on the other side of the River Tweed, stand the gravity defying remains of Wrae Tower.  This distant shot (it's not worth going over there!) was taken from beside the A701, with Wrae Farm in the trees to the right.</p>

<p>LLanercost Priory was founded by Robert de Vaux between in 1169 to house Augustinian Canons. It is situated at the village of Lanercost, in Cumbria. , The Priory  had an eventful history as a result of its position close to the Scottish border. It was a target of Scots attacks in retaliation to English raids.The Priory suffered from the turbulent history of the Borders. Lanercost Priory was dissolved in 1538 by Henry VIII. In common with many religious buildings I the Border regions a Peel Tower was built as a refuge for clergy and congregation when raids were expected or took place. The Peelt Tower at Lanercost survives although it is noe a private house.</p>
