This site grew from a personal interest in the people and history of the Anglo-Scottish Border. It brings together original research, historical essays, photographs, book reviews and pointers to work by other writers.
The longer articles examine subjects such as March law and Sir Robert Carey in detail. Shorter pieces introduce border places, books and stories that may help you explore further. References and quotations in the original research have been kept with the articles so readers can follow the evidence.
If you are new to the subject, begin with An introduction to the Border Reivers or the archive homepage.
