It rises on the Lammermuir Hills at the E side of Garvald parish, runs about 8 miles north-north-eastward to the sea at Belhaven Bay; traverses some of the most beautiful scenery in the county; is adorned, over more than one-half of its entire course, with the parks of Munraw, Overfield, Whittingham, Beil, and Belton; and has, on its left bank, 2¼ miles SW of Dunbar, a hamlet of Beltonford, with paper-mills.
