Borders Textile Towerhouse has an intriguing display of artefacts and gadgets from the Borders textile industry, including personal mementoes of everyday life in the mills.
You’ll also find objects from more turbulent times, including a marchers’ banner from the 1884 Franchise Demonstration, and a model ‘waulking’ mill designed to make the bosses scream!
