At the Tweeddale site the area was described as extending from Broughton in the west (a friend's family name that started this whole Tweeddale discussion in the first place) to Innerleithen in the east, West Lothian in the north to Tweedsmuir in the south.
In 1974 the name Tweeddale was given to the area as an administrative area, but its boundaries were so similar to the boundaries of Peebleshire that the area was then named a lieutenancy.
Tweeddale is now an area designated for a monarch's representative, and Peebleshire is the actual area/county name.
