Blaeu map of Pettinain
Year: 1654
This map, by Joan Blaeu in 1654, shows Pettinain – described on the map as ‘Petynan’.
Nearby is the Grange – the grange is mentioned in the records of the Abbey of Dryburgh. These records date the connection to the 13th century.
The distances on this map are a bit out of kilter as the Sills is fairly near Pettinain.
Blaeu was a Dutch cartographer born in Alkmaar, the son of cartographer Willem Blaeu.
