ITV Border, previously Border Television, is the ITV franchise holder for the England/Scotland border region, covering Dumfries & Galloway, a small part of the south-west area of Ayrshire, the Scottish Borders, parts of north and west Northumberland and the majority of Cumbria. The station formerly covered the Isle of Man between 26 March 1965 and 15 July 2009.

Border Television was taken over by Granada plc in 2001, and the company was renamed ITV Border in 2004. ITV Border merged with ITV Tyne Tees on Wednesday 25 February 2009 to form a non-franchise region known as ITV Tyne Tees & Border.

In May 1960 the Independent Television Authority (ITA) invited applicants to provide the ITV service for the Borders region, an area that covered the English counties of Westmoreland and Cumberland, the south of Scotland and later the Isle of Man.

Prior to this, the ITA had moved away from the idea of satellite stations (companies owned by distant management as seen with Southern Television in the south of England) towards companies that had strong local ownership. The contract covered two new transmitters at Caldbeck, near Carlisle and Selkirk, near Saint Boswells in the Scottish Borders. Granada Television and ABC Weekend Television had laid a claim to providing service via Caldbeck whilst Scottish Television expressed a strong interest in Selkirk. The ITA rejected both these in favour of a new contract area and a new company to serve it - although they stipulated the area to be 'marginal' in their plans and that applicants had to present a very strong business case for the area as well as the contract.
