Castle Douglas

Area Guide For Castle Douglas

Palace Douglas, a town in the south of Scotland in Dumfries and Galloway, lies in the eastern piece of Galloway known as the Stewartry, between the towns of Dalbeattie and Gatehouse of Armada. Palace Douglas is assembled alongside Carlingwark Loch in which hints of ancient crannogs can be discovered, proof of right on time inhabitation of the territory. To the North of the town Glenlochar is the site of two progressive Roman strongholds, the first being raised amid the attack of Agricola and the second amid the Antonine period, they seem to have been for mounted force units and confirmation has been discovered that a "victus" grew up around them, they were deserted totally around 160. Close-by Threave Stronghold was a seat of the effective "Dark" Earls of Douglas. A little accumulation of bungalows grew by the shores of Carlingwark, which was a wellspring of marl. These cabins can even now be seen on the Western way to Mansion Douglas and are known as The Buchan. The improvement of a military street through Galloway, assembled by General Wade after Jacobite climbing of 1745, passed through the Carlingwark zone and enhanced transportation associations in the eighteenth century.
