Baptist Church on Bridge Street. Another view. NT 6522 2088. © Bill Henderson (2014). Link.

The former Boston Church on High Street, now in use as the Royal British Legion Club. The first church on the site, of 1757, was a Secession Church. This was re-built in 1818. A map of 1899 labels it as United Presbyterian. The Grade B listing has more history. Bill adds that it was already in secular use (as a drill hall) by 1914. NT 6514 2074. © Bill Henderson (2014).

Church of Scotland on Newcastle Road and Oxnam Road. NT 6509 2024. © Bill Henderson. Another view, © Karel Kuča (2019). In a 2023 Streetview the church board reads "Jedburgh Old & Trinity Parish Church"; this had changed by September 2024 to read "Jedburgh & Oxnam Parish Church". Link. Category A listed, wherein it's dated to 1872-4.
