Wooden LochWooden Loch is a lochan in the Scottish Borders, at the edge of the village of Eckford.EtymologyIts name likely derives from an older Scots and English use of the suffix "-en", denoting either the past participle or the plural. Hence, a modern translation could be either "Wooded Loch" or "Woods Loch".HistoryUntil the 19th century, Wooden Loch did not exist and was part of a stretch of wetland known as Wester Moss. When the wetland was drained, forming the loch, locals found the preserved skull of an auroch.
