Scope and Content Hill-fort and Watch tower at Rubers Law, Scottish Borders This native fort and Roman watch tower stand on Rubers Law, the second highest point in the area. It has clear views in all directions. Part of the fort reuses some of the worked stone from the Roman structure. This is an aerial view of the site. The native fort consisted of a single stone wall, roughly pear-shaped in plan, around the summit of the hill. The wall is now little more than a low mound, though some of the facing blocks can be seen. A number of Roman finds came from the site. These include a hoard of bronze vessels found close to the summit in 1863 which are now in Hawick Museum. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
