Missing reference[edit]

There is a footnote referring to "Barrow, "Anglo-Scottish Border", pp. 121—5", but this item does not appear in the references. Ælfgar (talk) 11:25, 8 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know for certain, but this article was worked on by User:Deacon of Pndapetzim who has used the following reference in other articles: "G.W.S. Barrow, "The Anglo-Scottish Border", in The Kingdom of the Scots, (Edinburgh, 2003)". So I think that this chapter was likely cited, but I don't have that particular edition of the book to double-check.--Brianann MacAmhlaidh (talk) 11:49, 8 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
