Wales' lead-off pairing of Ann Lewis and Vicki Thomas won the last two holes to snatch a square match against Scotland's Lorna Bennett and Fiona De Vries who, after an fairly even outward half, had taken the lead for the first time by winning the 11th and were still one up on the 17th tee.
Scotland got their morning point with a 2 and 1 win by Heather Anderson and May Hughes over Patricia Fernon and Christine Harries.
The Irish pair had the better of the outward half and when they won the seventh and eighth they went two up.
Heather Anderson and May Hughes turned their fortunes around by winning the ninth to be only one down and then took three holes in a row from the 12th to jump into a two-hole lead.
Three halves in succession completed the Scots' victory.
Jane Rees and Denise Richards levelled the scoreline for Wales by beating sisters Mary Smith and Anne Ryan by two holes.
The Welsh pair looked to be heading for an early finish when they went four up after 10 holes but three halves in row stopped the rot for the Scots and when they won the 14th, 15th and 16th to be only one down on the 17th tee, they were on the verge of salvaging at least a square match.
But it was not to be. After a half at the 17th, Rees and Richards won the last hole.
