This cobbled street is now one-way with entry only possible from The Square. The shop premises in the central block are from left to right, The Town House Fish and Chip Shop, Computer IT and an empty shop to let previously occupied by Curiosity. The chip shop premises used to be occupied by Peter Martineau and Partners, Chartered Surveyors, where I worked for a while in the mid 1970s.

Kelso Fair
A lot of folk were sporting "Friends of the Fair" rosettes on their early 19th century costumes. Volunteers, or had Floors Castle let the ghosts out again?

Kelso : Town Hall
The dominant building in The Square at Kelso is the Town Hall, which was built in 1816 by public subscription to replace the old Tolbooth. The original design has been changed, with the ground floor arcade enclosed in 1905. The Town Hall clock, in its octagonal tower, has, over the years, been a source of controversy, with residents of local hotels complaining of being disturbed by its chiming every quarter hour. With the demise of the Burgh Council and the local court, the interior has been refurbished and now contains the Registrar's office, function rooms and the tourist information centre. In front of the Town Hall can be seen the bull ring, set in the cobbles, to which farmers used to tether their animals on market days.
