The Scottish Borders Region is an ideal place to visit for a long holiday, short break or day trip. With activities ranging from a day at the races to visiting centuries old monuments discovered. This Border Country saw numerous clashes between Scots and English, as its ruined castles and abbeys attest. Each year towns like Hawick,Melrose,Galashiels, Jedburgh, Kelso and all the Border towns remember this stormy past with the Common Ridings and Festivals. www.borderluxurytravel.co.uk

I believe this is the statue of Saint Aidan, who indeed founded the monastery on Holy Island. Saint Cuthbert led the community at a later date.
Donna, you are of course correct, please feel free to continue looking
