I have come across a placename which looks like Strarklaw. Does anyone know where it might be? It is likely to be near Edrom as I'm fairly sure that's where the baptism took place.

Ordnance Survey shows a Stuartlaw just east of Edrom - could that be it?

Viv Dunstan has a gazetteer for Berwickshire placenames on GENUKI. The ones beginning with S are here https://www.genuki.org.uk/big/sct/BEW/gazetteer/S.html
There's no obvious Strarklaw - maybe you can see something likely. Otherwise, scan the bit of text with a few other words for reference and put it somewhere where the rest of us can have a look.

Strarklaw revealed
Thanks to both Super Moderator and Fearless Super MacModerator. Stuartlaw it is then. So much for Victorian copperplate handwriting!
Cheers
