Lord of Halydean

Halydean (pronounced "Hollydeen," and also spelled "Holydean") is a Scottish Crown Barony and Lordship in Roxburghshire in the neighbourhood of Kelso, in the Borderlands of Scotland, along the River Tweed.

This area along the Tweed is home to the Scottish border clans, including the Armstrongs, Douglases, Elliots, Johnstones, Kers, Moffats, and many others.

The monks were part of the peerage of Scotland until 1545 when the Earl of Hertford reduced the abbey to ruins.

One of his heirs became the Duke of Roxburghe,[3] and eventually the Lordship and Barony of Halydean were disponed in the traditional Scottish manner to a member of Clan Moffat, another Scottish border clan.

The incumbent is Ewan Moffitt of Halydean, yr, according to the customs of primogeniture.
