Did you know the market square in Kelso is Scotland’s largest? Four cobbled street lead into the vast cobbled square, which is reminiscent of the style you’d see in French cities like Lille, both in its spaciousness and the elegance of the buildings – in this case Georgian and Victorian - around it. A reminder of a less stylish aspect remains at its heart – the mark where the old bullring stood for the cattle market still discernible.
