Notes
We are involved in a wide range of activities. Successful work has included creating and reinstating 7 heritage sites in the village, creation of 6 miles of paths; provision of genealogy information; compilation and production of 2 local heritage books, heritage work with local schools, production of various videos; and old photograph restoration. Our most recent achievement was working in partnership with Scottish Enterprise Dumfries and Galloway to introduce of wireless broadband into the Upper Nithsdale area.
Our future plans include a project to conserve a graveyard on the site of the original village and the creation of a geology trail from Kirkconnel to Wanlockhead. We are also investigating the potential of establishing exhibition space, a tea-room and low cost tourist accommodation.
