| Page Views: 380 Last Visit to Kelso: September, 2002 | Kelso Abbey and Floors Castle by ringleader - last update: Mar 1, 2004 |
Simply a ruins of an old abbey right in the middle of town. That's all - if you're on the abbey-streak, do stop and see - it is rather interesting.
Also, Floors Castle is in Kelso area - so pair the two together and you'll feel rewarded.
Other Border Abbeys worth visiting (see my other travel tips) are Dryburgh (in St. Boswells), Jedburgh, Melrose. Kelso is most ruined of them all. All of these abbeys are located close to each other and can be easily seen in a day's trip to the Borders. |

Thanks for the tip. | deecat Tue Jun 29, 2004 03:30 UTC Sometimes, the best "tours" are ones without leaders or instructions. This one seems to be the case. |
