Dist:0.8km<br/>This statue in Cavers Churchyard was built by a mason at the local Denholm quarry and depicts Willie Leggat with his dog, bonnet and basket. Born in 1718, he was simple minded but survived happily in the community. The statue has been moved around various local sites, but after some restoration work, now stands beside Cavers Church.
