Edington Mill is located a small hamlet, set amidst the rolling Borders countryside and located on the banks of the River Whiteadder. It is currently a well kept secret accessed by a leafy winding country road which leads past Edington Mains Farm and ends at the Mill. Interestingly, Edington Mains Farm was once owned by the family of F1 World Champion racing driver Jim Clarke OBE and there is a very good chance that he learned to drive on this very road.
