Signed between Henry III and Alexander II, king of Scots (1214-1249), this treaty secured England's northern border. It defined the boundary of the two kingdoms as running between the Solway Firth (in the west) and the mouth of the River Tweed (in the east). It remains (with the exception of a small area around Berwick taken by England in 1482) the border to this day. With the Treaty of York, Alexander II abandoned traditional Scottish claims to the counties of Northumbria and Cumbria.
