Colvin Fountain Moffat Ram

Reviewed By helenh567 - Driffield, United Kingdom

And overlooking the town, all eyes are drawn to this impressive monument. A ram standing on a pile of rocks, this is a reminder to all of how important sheep farming is to the area. Even more impressive at night!

Wigtown Martyers's Monument

Reviewed By bluelizard

A stone monument located at the original site of the Martyr's Stake, dedicated to Margaret Wilson and Margaret McLachlan, who died in 1685. Their faith was unbreakable as they didn't relinquish their beliefs, even as the tide moved in. Very moving. Excellent information boards. You can also visit their gravestones in the parish church. For the monument, go down the hill, passing the parish church on your left, around the corner and into the picnic area, then follow the coastal path and go through the gate onto the wooden boardwalk over the marsh. If you continue along the coastal path you can see the outline of the original harbour and can then head back into town from the end of the path.
