of the village (see below). His nephew, the noted Scottish jurist David, later Baron Hume, was baptised at Chirnside in 1757. Chirnside is also the final resting place of Jim Clark, former world champion Formula One racing-car driver. Close to the churchyard in which Clark is buried, there is a memorial plaque and clock at the side of the main road through the village. The Jim Clark Motorsport Museum can be found in Duns. Joelle Murray, Scottish internationalist and Hibs footballer, is from the village. Liam Craig, the former footballer, is from the village. Near the kirk once stood a tower house (demolished in the 18th century), built by the Earl of Dunbar, once the superior here.
