Interesting Facts About the Border Between
Scotland and England

The border between Scotland and England stretches for 108 miles
(174 kilometres) between the Solway Firth along the Cheviot Hills and the river Tweed, to the North Sea.

Hadrian's Wall, built by the Romans, ran further south than this, from Carlisle on the river Eden to the river Tyne in the east.

The town of Berwick on Tweed, at the mouth of the Tweed, changed hands between Scotland and England 13 times between 1147 and 1482 before finally becoming part of England.

Despite being in England, the football (soccer) team in Berwick (Berwick Rangers) plays in the Scottish League, the only English team to do so.
