Tweedmouth
The site of the present church has been home to a place of worship since the mid 1100's. Tweedmouth had a church in very early times on a different site, this earliest church was destroyed by Viking raiders in 870. The current church, dedicated to St Bartholomew, dates to the 1760's although a transept was added in the 1840's and a chancel was rebuilt in the 1860's. The early 1900's saw some further restoration to the building. Headstones from the Elizabethan era can be found in the graveyard.
