Hi Gadget             

thanks for the map,I did look at another map which wasnt as good.  Looks like Dryfesdale is quite a size of area,I didnt realise quite as big,you would think I should know as I was brought up in Lockerbie.  Thanks

Hiya,

Dryfesdale is the parish that Lockerbie is in.  It's an odd one because Lockerbie is such a big town you'd think it should of been it's own parish.

Details here:
