This walk around the market town of Newton Stewart, with a local guide, will explore the history and geography of the town, its people and events that influenced the area. The Romans, Mary Queen of Scots and the Industrial Revolution all left their mark. There will be a few small climbs to give view points and discuss distant landmarks, and a short time along the river and through woodland for variety.
