Tam Lin question
It's a silly question but it's always bothered me: how is Carterhaugh pronounced? I know Carterhaugh and Ettrick Hills (Thomas the Rhymer) are in Selkirkshire near Galashiels, Scotland but have never been able to successfully pronounce it in a way that doesn't trip the tongue and sound somehow wrong...the net hasn't been a help either.

Pronunciation
Carterhaugh is pronounced either Carterha' or Carterhoch with the "ch" at the end like in loch (Pronounced properly) or the german in "Ich". Hope this helps.

From the Scottish Borders...
