Before William Loren (Bill) Liddell went on his Scotland Pilgrimage, Arnold Liddle of Canada loaned this picture of himself to Bill for reference. It shows Arnold standing in Scotland at the point where the Liddel/Liddell/Liddle River flows into today's Esk River,which then flows into the Irish Sea a few miles further. Our river is in the distant rear on the other side of the spit of land. England lies in the distance but not immediately across the river. In medieval times, the Esk was called the Nith.
