Boreland
Boreland is a village in Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, which is located in Eskdale about north of Lockerbie on the B723 road to Eskdalemuir. The village has a small primary school. There is another small village called Boreland in Perthshire, one near Dysart in Fife and numerous hamlets and farms throughout Scotland, largely in the Central Belt and the south, with a particular prevalence in Dumfries and Galloway. The term is from the Scots "bordland" meaning "table-land" or "land which directly supplies the laird’s table".
