概要
Roxburgh Castle is one of the most strategically important, and now most overlooked, medieval fortresses in Scotland. Perched above the meeting of the Rivers Tweed and Teviot, its commanding position gave it control of the lower Tweed valley and Teviotdale, making it a key military stronghold in the Wars of Scottish Independence and the long centuries of Anglo-Scottish border warfare.
For more than 300 years, Roxburgh Castle was fought over, besieged, captured and recaptured as the crowns of Scotland and England battled for dominance. Its repeated changes of hands reflect the relentless struggle for control of the eastern approaches to Scotland.
Although only fragmentary ruins survive today, Roxburgh Castle remains rich in hidden history. Its broken walls and earthworks still tell a story of warfare, royal ambition and the turbulent past of the Scottish Borders.
