Roxburgh Castle
Roxburgh Castle is a ruined royal castle that stood on a mound overlooking the junction of the Rivers Tweed and Teviot in the Scottish Borders. Founded by the twelfth century and repeatedly contested between Scotland and England, it was demolished by the Scots after its capture in 1460; today only a large mound and small fragments of stone wall remain within the grounds of Floors Castle.

As it stood in 1417
The shape it held in its prime.
Perched on a raised grassy mound at the junction of the Rivers Tweed and Teviot, Roxburgh Castle in its prime presented as a compact medieval stone fortress: a continuous pale grey rubble-stone curtain forming a high enclosed perimeter atop the mound with defensive parapets and an entrance facing the river approaches. The site commands the river bend and surrounding floodplain; today only low fragments of masonry survive, especially on the south side.
