Hawick Motte
Standing in Moat Park are the remains of a motte and bailey castle which was the stronghold of the Lovell family, lords of the manor of Hawick, almost 900 years ago. On top of the mound would have been a wooden tower and around the base would have been a small settlement of houses and farm buildings. In Hawick it became known as The Mote and each year during the annual Common Riding celebrations, the Cornet climbs up to the top at dawn and sings the town song. There are no signs now of the ditch which surrounded the main mound. In 1912 an archaeological dig showed that the original ditch was between 5 and 9 metres wide and between 1 and 2.5 metres deep.
