At the time of the 2001 census, Selkirk's population was 5,742. The people of the town are know as Souters, a name meaning, cobblers. Selkirk was formerly the county town of Selkirkshire. Selkirk is one of the oldest burghs (boroughs) in Scotland and is the site of the earliest settlements in what is now the Scottish Borders. Selkirk is the site of the first Border Abbey where William Wallace, was declared guardian of Scotland. Bonnie Prince Charlie, The Marquess of Montrose and the Outlaw Murray all have tenuous connections with the town. Selkirk was originally named Seleschirche, meaning 'Kirk (church) in the Forest'. In 1113, King David I granted Selkirk large amounts of land. Selkirk's population grew up because of its woollen industry, although now that that industry has ceased leaving little in its wake, the town is best known for bannocks, a dry fruit cake. It has a museum and art gallery, and associations with Mungo Park (explorer), James Hogg "The Ettrick Shepherd" a local poet and writer and Walter Scott, a collector of ballads and writer of Romances, both of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century.

O' Floddenfield!
Souters, made up some of the Border Rievers. These were packs of local bandits and mercenaries, who mounted raids across the border, to thieve from and cause mayhem amongst the traditional enemy, the English. They fought with William Wallace at Stirling Brig and Falkirk, and also with Robert the Bruce at Bannockburn. Selkirk's connection with The Battle of Flodden (1513), the response to the call of the King, the representatives on the field, and the return of the sole survivor, provide the Royal Burgh with its proudest memories, though they are over 500 years old.

Selkirk Common Riding
Selkirk is only one of the many Borders towns to hold a Common Riding. Hawick and Langholm, also have Common Riding, and the nearby larger town of Glalashiels holds its Braw Lads and Lassies at the same time of year, which is basically the same thing. Peebles has translated Beltane from May to June to try to join in on the same "tradition". Selkirk's, is held on the second Friday after the first Monday in June, though no one knows why. The town's boundaries or 'marches' are ridden. It is the same tradition as "The Beating Of The Bounds" in England, but mounted. It is an exclusive event, the Souters who own a horse being the participants and women are excluded from the central roles. (Women do take part in Galashiels.) Visitors to the town will be surprised to find that nothing is to be had in the town during the event, as all business ceases during the common riding, with the exception of the pubs. Those Souters without horses use the time in drinking, the evenings being a rowdy roustabout in the town. Some Souters wear the town colours of blue and red on Common Riding Day, as well as the colours chosen by the Standard Bearer, which change annually.
Sir Walter Scott and Selkirk
Selkirk's past also includes Sir Walter Scott, known as "Walty the Plamf". In 1799 Scott was appointed Sheriff-Deputy of the County of Selkirk, and was based in the Royal Burgh's Courthouse, which can be found in the town square.
Sport
Rugby union plays its role in Selkirk culture and society. Void of the class stigma evident in the game throughout the rest of Scotland, rugby in the Scottish Borders is a much more inclusive sport. Selkirk RFC play in their home games at Philiphaugh, and are now in Premiership Division One and Border League (the oldest established rugby union league in the world). The town also has a footballing tradition, having produced some player of note in the Scottish game including Bobby Johnstone of Hibernian, Bob Mercer of Heart of Midlothian and Sandy McMahon of Celtic. Selkirk FC are members of the East of Scotland Football League and currently play in the Premier Division. Nicknamed The Souters, the club was founded in 1880 and is the oldest club in the Borders. Their home ground is Yarrow Park.
The Selkirk Grace
The Selkirk Grace, is a grace (prayer said before a meal) attributed to Robert Burns: It has no connection with the town.It was written for the Earl of Selkirk who resided in Kirkcudbrightshire in the west of Scotland. Burns wrote it as an apology when he was late for a dinner invitation. Today it is mainly used on occasions such as Burns' Night. It is usually said ironically.
William Wallace
After the death of Alexander III the hopes of the people of Scotland rested with the Maid of Norway. Her death in 1290 left the country at the mercy of the English King. From that date until the crown was awarded to John Balliol, King Edward prosecuted remorselessly his schemes against the independence of Scotland. Balliol, as preceding kings before him paid homage, in respect of his lands in England, to Edward and, in return, suffered many humiliations at the hands of the supposed English Suzerain. Scottish nobles and gentry, many from the Borderland, were compelled to swear allegiance to the "proud usurper." From the West of Scotland came William Wallace, a Scots knight who led his countrymen in resistance to English domination. Scottish Borderland is associated with Wallace. It was in Selkirk, supported by nobles and clergy, he was declared Guardian of the Kingdom of Scotland. Today in the 'forest kyrk' (the Kirk (church) of the Forest), referred to in ancient times as the church of St Mary of the Forest, visitors can now visit this ancient site, which is also the final resting place to several relatives of Franklin D. Roosevelt, the 32nd President of the United States of America. Roosevelt, whose ancestors came from the area, named his famous dog Fala, after Fala and the nearby village of Falahill.
