Selkirk, UK. 15th Jun, 2018. Selkirk Common Riding - Hail Smilin Morn: Riders galloping at the Linglie, during the town's Common Riding on Friday 15 June 2018 in Selkirk. One of the oldest Borders festivals, the event dating from the Battle of Flodden in 1513, remembers the story of Flodden, when Selkirk sent 80 men into battle with the Scottish King. One man returned, bearing a blood stained English flag. (Photo by Rob Gray / Freelance) Credit: Rob Gray/Alamy Live News
