Jedburgh Castle
NT 647-202 Roxburghshire Scotland

Jedburgh Castle Jedburgh Castle is a 12th century earthwork motte and bailey fortress, founded by King David I. Nothing now remains of the royal stone castle, which was occupied by both the Scottish and the English until 1409. The castle was then destroyed, to deny its use to the English and a 19th century Victorian prison now stands on the site. Nearby is Queen Mary's House and 4 miles west is Fatlips Castle.
