The range includes The Cheviot (the highest hill), plus Hedgehope Hill to the east, Windy Gyle to the west, and Cushat Law and Bloodybush Edge to the south. The hills are sometimes considered a part of the Southern Uplands of Scotland as they adjoin the uplands to the north.

Lammermuir Hills The Northumbrian missionary bishop Cuthbert spent his early years as a shepherd on the Lammermuir Hills. Sir Walter Scott's novel The Bride of Lammermoor and Donizetti's derivative Lucia di Lammermoor is set here. Scott lived at Abbotsford House, near Galashiels. Two ranges of hills in New Zealand, the Lammermoors and Lammerlaws are named after the Scottish hills. Lammermuir Hills The Lammermuirs ("An Lomair Mòr" in Gaelic) are a range of hills in southern Scotland, forming a natural boundary between Lothian and the Borders. The name literally means "lambs' moor". and is derived from the Old English words "lambra" and "mor."
