The histoiy of this Princess, who, it is scarcely necessary to say, was the daughter of Henry the Eighth by Catherine of Arragon, and his first-born child, lies within a very narrow compass. Her reign was short, and undistinguished by any remarkable feature, either of the state policy or military for- tune, from which the fame of Monarchs is usually derived. Her private life was yet more barren of circumstance, and so her character has remained wholly unknown to us. Could it then have been unfair or rash to conclude, to use a common but homely phrase, that she had no character at all 1 Surely we might have reasonably argued that had she possessed any one remarkable quality of mind, or shone in any acquired accomplishment, the facts could scarcely have been concealed from us ; that the deserts of princes never want recorders ; and that her friends and partizans, who then covered more than half the face of Europe, had, in addition to all ordinary motives to celebrate her, the powerful incentive of a party spirit the most active and heated, because it was founded in religious zeal. Nor could it have been answered to those remarks that their opponents, who at least equalled them in fury, would certainly not have omitted to publish to the world her deficiencies, for the rejoinder was ready—that doubtless they would, had they been able, but that to them she was unknown and inaccessible. To all this might be fairly added that a living author, of the Catholic Faith, who to every other merit of an historian adds that of perfect candour, inferen- II.

  • Archaeology Guide
    The Southern Upland Way archaeology guide Carved crosses on Laggangarn Stones THE SOUTHERN UPL AND WAY ARCHAEOLOGY IN SOUTHERN SCOTLAND The earliest remains are from the Neolithic and Bronze Age periods, usually in the form of burial mounds or standing stones. In AD79 the Romans invaded and occupied much of south and central Scotland. The Southern Upland Way twice crosses Roman roads that were made through Nithsdale and Annandale to the northern outposts. The trail also passes close to the largest Roman complex in southern Scotland, Trimontium, so named due to its proximity to the three peaks of the Eildon Hills. The region was later influenced by Norse invaders along the coastal fringes, Anglian Kingdoms to the south of the Border and by Irish settlers from Sanquhar Castle the west. After Robert the Bruce won independence for Scotland the area was one of conflict and unrest. The remains of the fortified tower-houses (or Pele Towers) built in these times are stark testament to the Borders’ bloody history. Further troubles erupted in the 17th century as Covenanters rebelled against the impositions of the English Bishops - the many martyrs’ memorials reflecting the violence of those “Killing Times”. Even the relatively recent past provides insights into a way of life now gone; industrial and agricultural monuments tell of the Cove Harbour revolutions that peacefully swept the country and wartime monuments remind us that the region has not always been a peaceful place.

  • Settlement Profile Jedburgh
    SETTLEMENT PROFILE JEDBURGH HOUSING MARKET AREA LOCALITY POPULATION Central Cheviot 4,030 PLACEMAKING CONSIDERATIONS The historic settlement of Jedburgh was built either side of the Jed Water which runs on a north-south axis, and is framed by Lanton Hill (280 metres) and Black Law (338 metres) to the west and south west and by lower more undulating hills to the east. The Conservation Area of Jedburgh includes much of the historic core of the town including the Abbey and the Castle Gaol. Similar to Edinburgh Old Town in its layout, Jedburgh has a long street that rises terminating with the castle at the highest point. The High Street is characterised by a mix of commercial, residential and social facilities, the central area is focused around where the Mercat Cross once sat with roads leading off in various directions. Properties within the Conservation Area are built in rows with some detached properties particularly along Friarsgate. Ranging from two to three and a half storeys in height, properties vary in styles. Although the elements highlighted above are important and contribute greatly to the character of Jedburgh they do not do so in isolation. Building materials and architectural details are also just as important. Sandstone, some whinstone, harling, and slate all help to form the character. Architectural details such as sash and case windows (though there are some unfortunate uPVC replacements), rybats, margins, detailed door heads above some entrances and in some instances pilasters all add to the sense of place. Any new development must therefore aim to contribute to the existing character of the Conservation Area.
