An energy company has shelved plans to build 24 wind turbines near the Southern Upland Way.
Community Windpower wanted to develop a site at Girthgate, between Lauder and Stow.
Scottish Borders Council opposed the application and the bid was referred to the Scottish government’s directorate of planning appeals.
A hearing was due to take place in September but the firm has withdrawn their appeal.
