Jedburgh and District ward encompasses the historic market town of Jedburgh along with surrounding rural settlements in the Scottish Borders. The area is defined by the valley of the River Teviot, with agricultural land and rolling hills characterising the landscape. The town itself serves as a key local service centre for the wider region, with a focus on community and administrative functions.
A notable landmark is the substantial ruins of Jedburgh Abbey, a 12th-century Augustinian foundation that dominates the town's skyline. The area's history is closely linked to the border conflicts between Scotland and England. Local economy includes traditional industries alongside newer developments, with the town positioned along the A68 corridor providing a transport link through the Borders.
