Jedburgh is a small town in a former royal burgh of the Scottish Borders. The town lies on the Jed Water which is a tributary of the River Teviot, just 10 miles from the English border.
The town has a rich history with architectural masterpieces like Mary Queen of Scots’ House, Jedburgh Castle Jail and the ruins of Jedburgh Abbey which dominates the town’s skyline. A church has been present at Jedburgh in some form since the 9th century. The town’s proximity to England has meant that historically it has been subject to raids and skirmishes between the two parties over the centuries.
Down the ages the expression “Jeddart Justice” or “Jethart Justice” arose from the summary execution of gang villans where a man was hanged first, and tried later. The phrase and not practice is still prevalent in the region today.
Visitors to the region will find “Jeddart” intoxicating residents are welcoming and the town enjoys a lively calendar of local and community events. There is an International Blues Festival and an annual Half-Marathon ran each year. The town boasts a 1000 year old oak called the Capon Tree; it has been designated as one of the 50 most significant trees in the UK today. The sadly is all that stands of the ancient Jed Forest today.
The town has a variety of restaurants and pubs which cater for all tastes. There is also a local speciality in the form of the Jethart Snail; this is a brown mint flavoured boiled sweet in the shape of a snail, supposedly introduced to the town by Napoleonic prisoners
