One of my favourite Cheviot walks is from Rowhope burn up the Street and over Mozie Law, tacking my way over the invisible Scotish/English border to the summit of Windy Gyle than back via Rowhope farm down to Barrowburn and a welcome cup of tea and cake at the Barrowburn cafe. I walked this recently with my daughter and Bennyboy. I tend to see the goat herd along the border ridge and there were two separate herds of 8. Many Red Grouse, Ravens and Fox moth caterpillars as well as a single Ruby Tiger Moth caterpillar.
