La distrutta città reale di Roxburgh (o Rosbroch) fu un'importante città commerciale scozzese dall'alto medioevo fino agli inizi dell'era moderna. Nel medioevo aveva un'importanza pari almeno a quella di Edimburgo, Stirling, o Berwick-upon-Tweed, e per un periodo fu la capitale de facto, in quanto residenza reale di Davide I di Scozia.
