    The project, which was funded through investment from the Forestry Commission Scotland, has improved existing pathways in order to allow Newbattle Abbey College to make use of the surrounding ancient woodland.  

    The £100,000 investment has brought an all-weather footpath along the river, which subsequently led to the upgrading of existing walkways and improvements to high areas of the woodland.

    Presume 'responsible cyclists welcome'(?)

    This may just be 'local paths' or there might be a better route following the Esk to Dalkeith than there was when I once visited (many years ago).

    There was talk about NCN being routed through Newbattle Abbey grounds when the Waverley line is reinstated. But I think that the plans have been altered a little (the route pops out near St David Gardens??)
