Continued | 008.09 | [Continued from page 89] Small Circular arches supported by slender shafts, that had when entire, run round the walls of the choir, over the massive Saxon arches: these belong to the Norman Style. There are likewise some fragments of early English in the centre tower. Kelso Abbey exhibits as perfect an example of interlacing arches as is to be found in the Kingdom; thus, it is believed by many learned authors, that the Gothic, or pointed Style, took its rise from the intermediate form of interlacing Arches. They were first used by the Norman architects, as mere ornaments, carried round to relieve the dead walls of their Churches; and, soon after, the Circular headed windows were abandoned, and long narrow pointed windows were substituted, which gradually merged into what is called the early English Gothic."

This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Roxburgh, which is in the south east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
