About this listen
Smailholm Tower’s outstanding views over the surrounding countryside gave it a much-needed defensive advantage at a time when border violence was normal.
Smailholm was raided frequently during the Rough Wooing, and attacked during the Bishop’s Wars. But it was also an inspiration for Scotland’s famous writer, Walter Scott.
