Borders Book Festival 2026
11–14 June, Melrose
Tickets are available for the 2026 Borders Book Festival, which celebrates the arts and literature in Scotland and beyond.
Rolling hills stretch across the Scottish Borders countryside, with lush fields and clusters of woodland creating a serene spring landscape. The peaceful setting near Melrose offers sweeping countryside views framed by hedgerows, wooden fences, and scattered mature trees. Vibrant greens mix with soft pastels of new foliage, perfect for nature photography and quiet reflection. A quintessential spot for enjoying the beauty of #ScottishBorders #CountrysideViews #RollingHills #NaturePhotography #SpringLandscape.

It’s a small music festival but ‘being mainly classical with some jazz and folk’ it is too niche? 🤔🙄
Someone might remind the councillor how many visitors it bring in to Melrose as well. He might also want to try attending/

Harbor Towers (9.98 mi), East India Row, Boston MA photographed from Buck Hill.
To the right is Mt Hood in Melrose MA. On top of it is Slayton Tower (16.5 mi), also sometimes referred to as Mt Hood Tower, 100 Slayton Rd which is dwarfed by a large cell tower (16.69 mi) behind it. Both towers are on the property of the Mt Hood golf course. I have been told that Slayton Tower can be visited and climbed during normal hours of operation for the golf course, though I have not visited yet.
To the left of the left Harbor Tower, the last few steel truss sections of the Maurice J Tobin Memorial Bridge (11.94 mi), Chelsea MA can be seen. The bridge connects US Route 1 between Boston and Chelsea. The portion that can be seen from Buck Hill are the last truss sections on the Chelsea side.
