Coldstream Marriage House submitted by Glen

Information taken from the Scottish Towns Website


Most people will have heard of Greta Green but may not be aware that many such 'marriage houses' existed across Scotland's border. There is one such house by the bridge at Coldstream where, if not with undue haste then certainly without much ceremony, marriages were performed.
