The remains of Dunskey Castle, on the cliffs above Portpatrick. On a stormlashed evening, you can just hear the skirl of pipes down in the caves below. This place has seen turbulent times.

The Hole Stone (or Crow Stone) in Galloway. Local tradition says that it was used during marriage ceremomies, by joining hands through the hole. A similar tradition is attached to St Kennera's Cross, a 10th century disc headed cross, pierced at the four quarters, at nearby Kirkinner.
It stands close to the White Cairn and another stone reputedly once accompanied it, which had gone by the mid-1800s.
