The route: The
walk is named after Cuthbert, a 7th-century saint, a native of the Borders who
spent his life in the service of the church. He began his work at Melrose Abbey.
He achieved the status of Bishop, and when he died he was buried on Holy Island.
He was called a saint eleven years after his death, when his coffin was opened
and his remains found to be perfectly preserved. |
