Located in Havelock Street.

This is a co-educational, non-denominational school providing primary education from ante pre school to P7 (Age 3-12).

Stirches Primary School is a co-educational, non-denominational school providing primary education from ante pre school to P7 (Age 3-12). Current school roll is 117 pupils, with a further 23 in the Nursery department.

This is the approach road to Stirches Primary School. Similar road markings are to be seen outside most schools in the country, but the colourful 'pencil and eraser' bollards are quite unusual. A number of them have been used in the vicinity of the school.

The house on the left is number 23, a former gate lodge, probably designed by John Thomas Rochead, and built in the later 19th century. It is Grade B listed.

This 65 metre blade weighing 16 tonnes was photographed from an elevated position at the roundabout near Morrisons as it was slowly moving on the A7 at Wilton Hill. The blades are transported on a blade lifter from a transition point near St Boswells to the Pines Burn Wind Farm approximately 6km southwest of Bonchester Bridge. On straight roads the blade is almost horizontal but on tight corners and in built up areas the blade can be raised to an angle of sixty degrees.

From their appearance, it would seem that few if any of these garages are still in regular use. They are located at the rear of housing in Havelock Street, Hawick.
