Roxburghshire or the County of Roxburgh is a historic county in the Southern Uplands of Scotland. It borders Dumfriesshire to the west, Selkirkshire to the north-west, and Berwickshire to the north. To the south-east it borders Cumberland and Northumberland in England.
It was named after the Royal Burgh of Roxburgh, a town which declined markedly in the 15th century and is no longer in existence. Latterly, the county town of Roxburghshire was Jedburgh. Today, the main towns in the county are Jedburgh, Hawick, Kelso and Melrose.
Today, Roxburghshire is within the Scottish Borders council area for local government purposes and contains the administrative centre of the area, the small town of Newtown St Boswells. It retains official status as a registration county, and falls within the Roxburgh, Ettrick and Lauderdale lieutenancy area for ceremonial purposes. The term Teviotdale was used in the past to define an area which was drained by the River Teviot, the River Tweed and their tributaries, and its boundary is similar to Roxburghshire.

Teviotdale EF2 Tornado - August 2nd, 2015, 9:15pm Filmed by Bailey Larissa Allard. First half is the video sped up. Second half is the video, zoomed in on the Tornado, sped up.

Tailor C, filmed this video and wrote: "The video I took of the only funnel cloud we saw that touched the ground. I believe it to be the tornado. Took this on the Palmerston, Cemetery road." Palmerston is just west of Teviotdale. Glad you stayed safe Tailor!!! Enhanced and cropped by OTW.

Nice day for a motorcycle ride to Teviotdale to access the tornado damage. Luckily there were no injuries reported from this storm!

Keep me under your bones
Walk with me when you roam
Isn't it crazy how we learn to return?
Isn't it crazy how we run to trust it?
So don't leave me here holding daffodils
It all seems clear when I'm lying still
Though you never will
Keep me under your style
Walk with me down the aisle
Isn't it crazy how we learn to return?
Isn't it crazy how we run to trust it?
So don't leave me here holding daffodils
It all seems clear when I'm lying still
Though you never will, daffodil
I will not fall
I will not fall, I will not
So don't leave me here holding daffodils
It all seems clear when I'm lying still
