Description
The town of Jedburgh and its surrounding villages have a rich history that spans centuries. This story explores the impact of the old presbytery of the local abbey, which was destroyed in the late middle ages, but the townspeople persevered.
From constant attacks from across the border to the influence of Scottish kings over the years, Jedburgh's history is marked by significant events and figures. This book delves into the town's past, including the flight and plight of Mary, Queen of Scots, and uncovers the secrets of this Border jewel.
With 152 pages of detailed history, this book provides a unique insight into the town's enduring legacy.
