  Chesterfield County, Virginia | Planning - Ettrick Community Profile
Ettrick, one of the county's older unincorporated villages, is located on the north side of the Appomattox River, across the river from Petersburg and west of the City of Colonial Heights.
By the 1800s, Ettrick was cutting its teeth as a mill town, influenced by ease of access to Petersburg via Campbell's Bridge, which was built across the Appomattox in 1810.
"Ettrick is in a wonderful location," said Sterling Hawkins, a lifelong Ettrick resident and vice president of Ettrick on the Move, a community association formed 12 years ago to steer community improvements and beautification efforts and to plan community activities.

 IMEJ Article - Ettrick: Imagery Parelleling Emotion
The poem "Ettrick" by Alicia Ann Spottiswood is filled with natural imagery that parallels the stages of the narrator's relationship with another person (or a group of people).
While the events are simple (three different journeys down Ettrick), the descriptions of the surroundings and glimpses of human emotion evoke an overall understanding of the narrator's feelings about the relationship.
They are riding down Ettrick in the late afternoon of an autumn day and the setting is becoming more calm-"the day [is] dying, the wild birds calling, / [t]he wind [is] sighing, the leaves [are] falling" and the heather has faded (lines 8, 9, 11).

 Literary Encyclopedia: The Private Memoirs and Confessions of a Justified Sinner
It is clear, however, that the novel is firmly rooted in the entire output of its author, James Hogg, the Ettrick Shepherd (1770-1835), particularly in his other novels of the 1820s, which similarly experiment with multiple narratives and conflicting voices and seek to unsettle the reader's preconceptions as they proceed.
As Peter Garside explains in his recent edition of the novel there is little surviving evidence of its genesis and no surviving manuscript, but it seems clear that Confessions of a Justified Sinner was probably written and printed during the autumn of 1823 and spring of 1824.
Soaked in the retributive imagery of the Old Testament, Robert's language reveals him to be a liar, a cheat, a rapist, a murderer, and (as a self-deceiver) an unreliable narrator.
