About Westruther
- Westruther sits at the foot of the Lammermuir Hills, where the upland moorland gives way to the fertile farmland of the Merse. The village is a quiet agricultural community, with a parish church, a village hall, and a scattering of farms and cottages. The surrounding farmland is typical of the Berwickshire Merse — large arable fields on deep, fertile soils, with shelter belts of trees and the occasional red sandstone farmstead.
- Hule Moss, a peat bog on the edge of the Lammermuirs above Westruther, is a Site of Special Scientific Interest for its upland bog vegetation and invertebrates. The moss is one of the best-preserved examples of blanket bog in the Borders, and the sphagnum mosses, cotton grasses, and sundews that grow there are characteristic of the upland bogs that once covered much of the Lammermuirs.
- The Lammermuir Hills above Westruther are managed primarily for grouse shooting, and the heather moorland supports populations of red grouse, curlew, golden plover, and short-eared owl. The hills are also important for birds of prey, including merlin, peregrine, and hen harrier. The views from the high ground above the village take in the full sweep of the Merse to the Cheviot Hills and the North Sea.
- Westruther Parish Church, which dates from the 18th century, serves the scattered farming community of the surrounding area. The churchyard contains the graves of several generations of local farming families, and the church itself is a simple, dignified building typical of the rural kirks of the Borders. The village is a quiet, self-contained community with a strong sense of local identity.
