These pictures were taken during a short stay in Hawick at the end of July 2004.

All were shot on a Nikon D100 camera, as high resolution raw images, and reduced to small images for web display.

Most images are available for reproduction as high resolution files at normal rates (except for those taken within English Heritage or Historic Scotland sites.) The pictures on this site only represent a small fraction of those taken, especially of Hawick; please enquire if you want other images.

Please contact me through the comments page to discuss fees and usage. Fees may be waived for suitable non-commercial web use only. Prints are also available for framing.

Hawick: Miscellany
	Night along the Teviot
	Burns Club
	Walled Gardon, Wilton Park
	Wilton Park is a large and varied pari, with a good local museum. It includes a statue erected after the death of motorcyclist Jimmy Guthrie racing in Germany in 1938. Other memorials were erected in Germany and on the Isle of Man, and there is an interesting display on him in the museum.

	The Railway used to link Hawick with Hexham, Carlisle and Edinburgh, but closed in 1969. There are still traces of the line visible through the town (and a fine viaduct a dozen miles south) and there is a some chance that the route from Edinburgh to Carlisle will one day be reopened. The site of the station is now occupied by the leisure centre, but much of the trackbed remains.
