Despite its name, Newtown St Boswells is a large village of considerable antiquity - dating back to at least the 16th century. This is the valley of the Bowden Burn, the southern of two burns which cross the main street of the village in deep valleys. The upper road is Tweedside Road which actually terminates a full 500 metres from the River Tweed.
