Horsemarket in Kelso
A six month trial for a one way traffic system commenced in the town in early March 2011 and will be reviewed over the summer. Vehicles can no longer enter Horsemarket from The Square as can be evidenced by the no-entry sign in this view up Horsemarket taken from The Square.

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.
