About Galashiels - show infohide info
Galashiels is a busy town on the A7 road from Carlisle to Edinburgh. Galashiels lies in the bottom of the steep-sided valley of the Gala Water a mile upstream of its confluence with the River Tweed. Though the Galashiels has worked hard to diversify in recent years, Galashiels' history has been closely tied to the fluctuating fortunes of the textile industry in the Scottish Borders. Galashiels has long been associated with the textile trade and the first references to three fulling mills in the town can be traced back to 1585. Surrounding areas include Bathgate, Dunfermline, Haddington, Edinburgh, Kirkcaldy and Linlithgow.
