Auchincraw, a village in Coldingham parish, Berwickshire, 2 miles WSW of Reston station, and 3 NNW of Chirnside. It has a post office under Ayton, and a public school; and it was notable, in old times, for reputed pranks of witchcraft. The school, with accommodation for 104 children, had (1879) an average attendance of 47, and a grant of £39,18s.
