With nearby archaeological earthworks dating back to the Iron Age, it's clear that Galashiels has long been an important site.
In terms of industry and commerce, woollen mills were prevalent in the 1800s and at its peak, around a third of the entire population of the Scottish Borders were employed in the textile industry.
The Borders region was renowned for its high-quality cloth weaving and clothing manufacture – numerous tweeds and tartans were produced in Selkirk and Galashiels, while the workers of Hawick produced luxury knitted goods.
