Hi Dotty,

If you Google 'Nithsdale Mill' you'll find a few websites mentioning it.

Church Street, Maxwelltown is on the other side of the river Nith and runs past the Dumfries museum, maybe 1/4 of a mile away.

Yes there is an old church in church street Maxwelltown. I have been there but I forget the name of the church. The Mill is in the same street as St Michaels. St Marys is near the railway station.

There is a church hall and a church at the very bottom end, not sure what religious order it is?
