The Manor Hills, also known as the Tweedsmuir Hills, are a range of hills south of Peebles in the Scottish Borders, one of the ranges which collectively form the Southern Uplands. They are separated from the Moffat Hills by the Talla Reservoir, Megget Reservoir and St. Mary's Loch, the Moorfoot Hills by the A72 and the Culter Hills in South Lanarkshire by the A701. The western portion of the hills are designated as the 'Tweedsmuir Hills' Site of Special Scientific Interest and the 'Upper Tweeddale' National Scenic Area, with the major tributary rivers designated as Special Areas of Conservation.{{Cite web|url=https://sitelink.nature.scot/map|title=SiteLink}}
The Hills
A broad area, the higher hills could be said to generally split into three sections: those directly south of Peebles, those north of the Megget Reservoir and those southeast of Drumelzier. There is, however, a section of lower hills east of the B709 road as well as some isolated hills throughout. The highest point of the range is Broad Law, which is also the highest point in the historic county of Peeblesshire. The hills contain five Marilyns and thirteen Donalds, of which there is one Graham and one Corbett.{{Cite web|url=https://www.walkhighlands.co.uk/donalds/|title=The Donalds (Walkhighlands)|website=www.walkhighlands.co.uk}}
