Thanks Margaret.  I noticed Ingraston & wondered if that was the place & maybe a corruption of the original name.

Hi Binkie
I think Margaret may be correct in suggesting Ingraston -  I looked up History of Peeblesshire (Volume 3) by James Buchan and saw that  INGOLNESTON was sold to James Lawson of Cairnsnuir in 1653, then was sold again in 1830 to John Allan Woddrop, and referred to as INGRASTON, previously known as Ingliston.
There is presently as Margaret said, a farm named Ingraston, owned now by the Gilchrist family.
I thimk it will be in West Linton parish

Hope this is helpful

I'm very grateful to both you & Margaret, Mrs A.

The matter is certainly resolved due to your detective work.

Many thanks - Agnes aka Binkie
