Shoemaking was the main trade in Selkirk until the textile trade arrived – the Shoemakers' Guild was founded in 1609 and survived until the 1960s. The trade lived on until 1975 when John Guthrie, the last shoemaker, retired. This statue on Kirk Wynd in the area known as Selkirk Regis is a monument to the great tradition.
