History

Eaglesfield is of ancient origin, and Blacket Tower is the former seat of an old Scottish Borders family, Clan Bell,a sept of Clan Douglas.[2] There is some debate about the origin of the first element of the name which may derive from the Celtic word for a church, eglwys in modern Welsh, or eaglais in modern Scottish Gaelic.

Springkell House, Palladian mansion of 1734. [1] Additions of 1818 by architect Alexander Johnstone, alterations and interior remodelling in 1894. [2]

Many of the buildings in the village are of recent construction, from the 19th and 20th centuries.[3] The village is a good example of a linear settlement, as most of it is in and around a single road.

The nearest town to Eaglesfield is Annan, which is located approximately 7 miles (11 km) away.[4]

The small settlements of Gair and Waterbeck are also close by.
