#HillfortsWednesday takes us to #Ruberslaw , a volcanic hill above the Teviot between Hawick & Jedburgh. Home to an Iron Age hillfort & a Roman signal station: a spot of layered history. The Ruberslaw Hoard found here, is on display at #Trimontium Museum.

Ruberslaw in the 🏴 Borders is close to my heart for I am married to a Turnbull @gordonflute.bsky.social and this hill stands above historic Turnbull territory, the Rule Valley.
A strategic site on a contested border, Ruberslaw has #IronAge #Roman and early #Medieval archaeology

Hobkirk, a small village in the Borders, gives us our #ScottishChurchOfTheWeek. Ruberslaw Country Parishes was formed when the parishes of Hobkirk & Southdean with Ruberslaw united in 2024. 900 years have seen many churches, and the David Rhind building is from 1863.

In the midst of the Scottish Borders - there sits a volcano!
Rubers Law - a long-extinct volcano stands between Hawick and Jedburgh.
The summit rocks are a volcanic plug.

A campsite inside an Edwardian walled garden sounds like somewhere worth investigating.
Ruberslaw Wild Woods Camping has flower gardens, an old orchard and wild woodland, with roe deer, foxes, badgers and hares among the trees. 🌿

1x dish
1x hand-wash basin
1x jug handle
2x scabbard fittings

And to finish off today we had this… Not too shabby :-) in between we made the very excellent folk at www.bajr.org website go live. It’s been a long haul but totally worth it. Great people unearthing the past and sharing it with the world. #archaeology rocks ! Now time for bed…

Ruberslaw hill was not one I had heard off before but provided a beautiful setting for a walk on Saturday - stunning views - top effort to view exchange ratio ! #hawick

We are starting to see a lot of local money coming in to saving these key historic buildings - links to a wider diaspora is clearly a route for a number of other communities - www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
