Anglo-Scottish
Wars
The Borderlands to north and south of the River Tweed became a fortified
frontier district, its once-rich farmlands devastated and its landscape
dotted with castles, towers and battlefields.
Between 1296 and 1482, Berwick was besieged and assaulted on more occasions
than any other town in the world other than Jerusalem, changing hands
no less than 13 times!
