There must be if it's 5 miles NE of Dumfries.

I've just been looking at a modern OS map (Street map) and the Bankhead Road runs to the SE of Dumfries - the Crichton is on it.

1861 census on Ancestry has John Kirkpatrick, blacksmith (63) living at 3 Winterhopehead, in Civil Parish Dumfries St Michael, therefore Winterhopehead would be much nearer Dumfries than Middlebie area.

This is I think a transcript from the excellent Scottish Indexes of the family  found by hcc in 1851. Scroll on the map links and you will see there is a place called Wintriphead.
