About Fencing in North Berwick
North Berwick in East Lothian began as a small fishing village with a harbour dating from around 1150, originally built to serve as a ferry port for pilgrims crossing the Firth of Forth on their way to St Andrews. The town gained a darker place in history in 1590, when local people were accused in one of Scotland's earliest witchcraft trials of conjuring a storm intended to sink the ship carrying King James VI and his new bride home from Denmark. Golf has an equally long pedigree here, with a reference to Sunday golfing recorded in the Kirk Session Book as early as January 1611, and North Berwick Golf Club, founded in 1832, is the 13th oldest golf club in the world, with only St Andrews having hosted a club playing continuously on the same course for longer.
