Like Gomorrah with horses – that’s probably the best way to describe the stories of those inhabiting the heather-clad hills between England and Scotland who were strung up on gallows during the turbulent period of the border reivers and after, when King James I/VI attempted to ‘Pacify the Border’.The condemned here were cattle rustlers, counterfeiters, burglars, protection racketeers, thieves and murderers who rode in family-based gangs, terrorised the countryside on both sides of the dividing line, and were essentially the mafia of their time.They were executed in places such as Edinburgh, Dumfries, Jedburgh, Hawick, Peebles, Selkirk, Berwick, Morpeth, Alnwick, Newcastle, Hexham and Carlisle in a period marked by conflict between the two great nations where their land became a warzone.Anyone interested in the darker side of the history of the bloodstained border can trace the lineage of those families embroiled in criminal society from the Scottish Wars of Independence right through to the Acts of Union between the countries in 1707.The March Laws that the border reivers lived under were finally ended in 1603 when King James ascended to the English throne following the death of Queen Elizabeth I – and the ‘pacification’ of the criminal gangs began.

Money has no flag.The largely rural borderland between England and Scotland was ravaged by marching armies in more than three centuries of conflict between the great nations. During this period from the Wars of Scottish Independence to the Union of the Crowns, many myths and folk heroes were born, with later romantic writers glossing over the criminal brutality of the local population, who suffered as the conflicts raged.While crops, homes and livelihoods were destroyed, it also led to the development of a system of family-based organised crime gangs among the hills and valleys. Livestock theft became a way of life with burglaries, protection rackets, kidnapping for ransom, highway robbery, intimidation, mutilation and murder an everyday occurrence.With corruption and nepotism rife among officials, people being bought off, and witness intimidation prevalent, the Borderers were also used as mob enforcers for powerful local landowners and nobles and could find themselves in demand as mercenary soldiers and horsemen.On the occasions that the law did catch up with them and the reivers found themselves incarcerated, they sprang many daring escapes, enhancing their lawless status and criminal standing among the community as feared members of the Border Mafia.
