Location


Tweed Business Park, formerly Tweed Mills, comprises an established complex of nineteenth-century former textile mill buildings, situated approximately one mile north-east of Selkirk town centre. The property occupies a prominent position within the Riverside area of Selkirk, an area that has undergone substantial regeneration and is now recognised as one of the principal commercial locations within the Scottish Borders.

Selkirk occupies a central position within the Borders, lying between Galashiels, approximately seven miles to the north, and Hawick, around eleven miles to the south. These towns represent the two largest population centres in the region, with populations of approximately 14,000 and 16,000 respectively. Selkirk therefore benefits from a strategic location, well placed to serve a broad regional catchment. The population of Selkirk was recorded at 4,663 in the 2022 Census, while the population within a ten-mile radius was approximately 53,067, with an average household income of £26,993.

The town benefits from excellent road connectivity, with direct access to the A7 arterial route, providing north–south links through the Borders to Edinburgh and Carlisle, and onward connections to the national road network via the A68 trunk road, offering routes to Newcastle and the east coast. This connectivity makes Selkirk an attractive and accessible location for businesses serving both local and wider regional markets.

Historically, Selkirk developed as a major centre of the Borders textile industry, with numerous mills constructed along the River Tweed and its tributaries during the nineteenth century, including Tweed Mills.

Following the decline of the textile sector, the Riverside area has been the focus of significant public and private investment aimed at regeneration and economic diversification. As a result, the area has been transformed into a modern and highly regarded business location.

Tweed Business Park itself has been comprehensively redeveloped to provide a contemporary business park environment, accommodating a diverse mix of occupiers across Class 4 (Business), Class 5 (General Industrial) and Class 6 (Storage and Distribution) uses, as defined within the Town and Country Planning (Use Classes) (Scotland) Order 1997. Surrounding investment includes the refurbishment of Ettrick Mill to form the Ettrick Riverside Business Centre, along with a range of private developments such as Yarrow Mill, Oregon Timber’s redevelopment of the former Portland Timber site, Scottish Borders Housing Association offices, Charles Brodie & Sons depot and additional commercial units throughout Ettrick Park and the wider Riverside area.

Collectively, these developments have established the Riverside area as one of the Scottish Borders’ key commercial hubs, offering an attractive and well-connected environment for both local and inward-investing businesses.
