More about this scene
Here we see motorists in the village - they are probably touring the area. The 'burn' part of the name comes from the stream which runs through the village. The 'chat' part is either an Old English personal name 'Ceatta', or the word 'ceat', which means 'piece of wet ground'. In our view we are looking towards the bridge over the burn. The Brown Cow public house is on the right, and the Black Bull Hotel can just be made out further down the road. The village is 400ft above sea level.
