Fulton Tower

Fulton Tower is a ruined 16th century tower house, about 4.5 miles (7.2 km) south west of Jedburgh, Scottish Borders, Scotland, and about 2 miles (3.2 km) south of Bedrule, east of the Rule Water.

The English commander Lord Hertford reported that on 16 September 1545, "I sent forth a good band to the number of 1500 light horsemen in the leading of me [and] Sir Robert Bowes, which from 5 a.m. till 3 p.m., forayed along the waters of Tyvyote and Rowle, 6 or 7 miles beyond Jedburgh, and burnt 14 or 15 towns and a great quantity of all kinds of corn".

[3] A list of twelve places on the Rule Water burnt during the raid comprises "Rowle, Spittel, Bedrowle (Bedrule Castle), Rowlewood, The Wolles, Crossebewghe, Donnerles, Fotton (Fulton), West Leas, Two walk mylnes (two fulling mills), Troonyhill, Dupligis".

The other walls, built of roughly coursed harled rubble, remain to an average height of 18 feet (5.5 m).

There are two oval gunloops facing north west on the ground floor.
