	Kelso, Scotland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Kelso's other main tourist attractions are the ruined Kelso Abbey and Floors Castle, a William Adam designed house completed in 1726.
		The town of Kelso came into being as a direct result of the creation of Kelso Abbey in 1128, the origins of the town's name comes from the fact that the earliest settlement stood on a chalky outcrop and the town was known as Calkou in those early days.
		The abbey controlled much of life in Kelso until the Reformation took place in the sixteenth century, after that the power and wealth of the Abbey declined and the Ker family of Cessford, took over much of the Abbey’s properties around the town and by the 1600s they virtually owned Kelso.

	Accessing Scotland's Past
		Kelso lies at the confluence of the Rivers Tweed and Teviot, occupying a chalky hill and it is from this that the town's name is derived, having been known originally as Calchou.
		Their survival is probably a result of Kelso not sharing in the great mill boom of the nineteenth century that brought an influx of workers to the other Borders burghs.
		Wester Kelso appears to have declined at the same time as Roxburgh, during the long English occupation of the castle, and was largely destroyed in a late seventeenth-century fire.
