Where to file a court claim

I live in England, the individual I wish to make a court claim (small claims) against resides in Scotland. I am aware that there is a different process to make a court claim in Scotland, does anyone know whether I engage with this, in their domicile or in England, mine.

    Maybe best to repost in the England or Scotland one.

    As a rule of thumb: pursue it in the jurisdiction where it is to be enforced. It's pointless getting a judgment which then can't be applied...
