No, I didn't. That's why I mentioned it.

The modern border is (more or less) as set out in the 1237 Treaty Of York (thus, I assume, the title of this thread), in which the traditionally Scottish areas of Northumberland and Cumbria were given to England. The border regions of both countries had not really been set in stone previously, and both countries more or less merged in an uncertain way. As you moved south, you were moving into increasingly English territory, but it would be difficult to pinpoint exactly when you crossed over into England.
