In 1882-4, Frances Groome's Ordnance Gazetteer of Scotland described Horndean like this:
Horndean, a village and an ancient parish of SE Berwickshire. The village, standing within 5 furlongs of the left bank of the river Tweed, 7½ miles NNE of Coldstream, and 2¾ N of Norham, is an ancient place, which shared in important events connected with the wars of the succession, and now has a U.P. church containing 450 sittings. The parish, at the time of the Reformation, was united with Upsetlington to form the parish of Ladykirk.
Horndean is now part of SCOTTISH BORDERS Council. Click here for graphs and data of how SCOTTISH BORDERS has changed over two centuries. For statistics about Horndean itself, go to Statistics.
