During its working lifetime, Loch Skerrow Halt was one of the remotest stations in the country. All that remains now are a couple of platforms, the ruins of the railway workers cottages and the Scots Pine planted to act as a windbreak. #History #VIDEO youtu.be/xHgVeF4uwXo

youtu.be/v3tdAqGn3OE Situated slightly to the north of Carsphairn and the ruins of Lagwyne Castle is the Green Well, where the Devil sits on a ledge, guarding the 'vast' amounts of gold that have been thrown into it over time. #history #galloway #scotland #video #folktale

This infamous event from Scottish History partly inspired the Red Wedding in Game of Thrones.  William 6th Earl of Douglas was only 14 when he became Earl.  But by the age of 16, he had been tried and executed for plotting against the King.  youtu.be/WwnhLx5rPik

A final story from Threave for now …. Even after the murder of William Douglas, the 8th Earl of Douglas, the Douglas Family had continued to defy James the Second, prompting him to bring the fearsome Mons Meg to Galloway to deal with them. youtu.be/1dhrC04UxjY
