经过几个世纪的冲突,人们可能会认为苏格兰边境会遍布城堡和防御工事。 虽然邓弗里斯和加洛韦的南部地区确实如此,但东部边境的城堡却出奇的少,只有皮布尔斯和英格兰之间有四个。

然而,战场遗址很多,从1333年的哈利顿山战役到更晚的1645年的菲利普豪格战役。 最著名的是弗洛登战役,这场战役见证了大多数苏格兰贵族和国王詹姆斯四世的死亡。

苏格兰边境也有一些神话般的罗马遗迹,可以追溯到他们征服苏格兰的失败尝试。 例如,迪尔街是哈德良墙和安东尼墙之间的主要供应路线,一些里程碑至今仍保留着。 沿着这条路线有佩尼穆尔和特里蒙蒂姆的营地,尽管由于罗马占领的短暂性质,这些营地大多营地是临时性的,现在只剩下土堆了。

如果去苏格兰边境旅游,我们强烈建议去东部海岸,那里拥有全国最好的海滩。 更妙的是,由于他们相对孤立,即使在夏季,他们也经常被遗弃
